UNSPSC 50345722: Frozen sierra rose plucot

The variety of plucots known as sierra rose plucot that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50345722 Frozen sierra rose plucot is a Commodity code that maps to state and local procurement for fresh and frozen produce, though the recent solicitations show little activity under this specific commodity and considerable mismatch between the code's narrow scope and the actual purchasing patterns. State and local governments buy food service supplies at scale under related produce and grocery codes, not this specific cultivar; the recent opportunities block contains no bids or solicitations explicitly for frozen sierra rose plucots or even frozen specialty stone fruits. The issuing bodies across the recent sample are predominantly school districts, state health and human services agencies, and county facilities (corrections, detention), with repeat buyers including the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia school districts, and county boards of education. The work being solicited is comprehensive food and consumables supply for institutional food service — state hospitals, supported living centers, detention facilities, and school nutrition programs serving thousands of daily meals — across produce, frozen items, dairy, proteins, and paper supplies under contracts typically running one year with renewal options and estimated values ranging from hundreds of thousands to nine million dollars annually.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and California based on the recent opportunities, with secondary activity in other states including Florida, Missouri, Connecticut, New Jersey, Oregon, and the broader South. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017660 for groceries at Big Spring State Hospital (response due July 27, 2026), covering approximately 110 line items with a prior-year baseline of $32,226.36; the City of Bridgeport's IFB for grocery items supporting the Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services (response due June 30, 2026) across 1,100+ line items with strict Buy American and nutrition compliance requirements; and the Douglas County School System's RFP 26-003 for food supply and distribution services serving 32,500 students with an estimated annual expenditure of approximately $9 million. These procurements emphasize firm fixed pricing, compliance with federal food safety and nutrition standards (USDA Smart Snacks, CACFP, NSLP), HACCP certification, liability insurance minimums of $500,000 to $2 million, and delivery to multiple school or institutional sites on schedules typically Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
