UNSPSC 50345808: Frozen beach plum

The variety of plums known as beach plum that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50345808 Frozen beach plum, a Commodity code, shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its narrow product scope. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000016590 for frozen fruit berries (posted April 9, 2026, bids due April 23, 2026)—solicits unsweetened, individually quick frozen blackberries, blueberries, strawberries, Marion berries, and other varieties in bulk, not frozen beach plums specifically. Beach plums are a specialized, regionally limited product rarely used in institutional food service; the recent opportunities block reflects instead broad state and local procurement demand for frozen produce, dried fruits, fresh produce, and comprehensive grocery portfolios across school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, state hospitals, and child care agencies.

State and local buyers soliciting under food-commodity codes in the same family tier are predominantly school districts (Fulton County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Henry County Schools, Douglas County School System, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur), state-level health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Department of State Health Services), and correctional or special-purpose entities (Oregon Department of Corrections, County of Santa Clara Sheriff Department). Issuing bodies span Texas, Georgia, Florida, Missouri, Connecticut, New Jersey, California, and Oregon, with school-district food procurement representing the most active segment. The actual purchasing under the broader frozen-produce and commodity codes reflects demand for production-scale quantities (40,000 pounds of frozen berries, 32,409 cases of frozen and fresh foods, 210 line-item statewide food catalogs), firm fixed pricing, HACCP compliance, delivery logistics, and USDA nutrition and Buy American standards. Frozen beach plum—a rare, boutique product with no documented institutional demand in the recent opportunities—does not align with this activity. Vendors targeting institutional food service in state and local procurement should pursue broader frozen-fruit, frozen-vegetable, or comprehensive grocery-commodity codes rather than this narrowly scoped Commodity tier.
