UNSPSC 50345804: Frozen autumn beaut plums

The variety of plums known as autumn beaut plums that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50345804 Frozen autumn beaut plums is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of frozen specialty fruit products, though recent solicitation activity under this code is minimal and does not reflect frozen autumn beaut plums specifically. The source contains no recent state or local opportunities explicitly soliciting frozen autumn beaut plums. The code sits at the narrow end of a broader fruit procurement taxonomy; state and local governments purchasing under related frozen-fruit categories do so primarily through institutional food service contracts supporting schools, correctional facilities, state hospitals, and child care programs. Representative frozen-fruit solicitations show purchases of mixed berries, dried fruits, and fresh produce as components of much larger, multiline-item grocery and nutrition contracts rather than as standalone commodity buys.

Geographic spread of frozen-fruit and specialty-produce procurement in the source spans Texas (HHSC state hospitals and supported living centers), Georgia (multiple school districts including Hancock County, Savannah-Chatham, and Fulton County), Florida (Hillsborough County), Missouri (Rockwood school district), Connecticut (Bridgeport schools), New Jersey (Department of Human Services), Oregon (Department of Corrections), and California (Santa Clara County). The issuing bodies are predominantly K-12 school districts managing National School Lunch Program contracts, state departments (Texas HHSC, New Jersey DHS, Oregon DOC), and county governments. School nutrition programs dominate the activity, with RFP and IFB notices clustered in spring and early summer for fall contract starts. The Oregon Department of Corrections posted ITB S2910000016590 on April 9, 2026 for 40,000 pounds of frozen berries (blackberries, blueberries, strawberries, Marion berries) with bids due April 23, 2026; that solicitation shows the closest match to frozen specialty fruit. Absent a current opportunity explicitly naming frozen autumn beaut plums, vendors in this niche should monitor school nutrition and institutional food service contracts where specialty frozen fruits appear as line items within broader grocery bids, though activity is infrequent and embedded in much larger procurements.
