UNSPSC 50345852: Frozen marked red plums

The variety of plums known as marked red plums that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50345852 Frozen marked red plums is a Commodity code that sees little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific frozen fruit product, but the recent opportunities posted under it span comprehensive grocery and food service procurement across multiple product categories—proteins, dairy, pantry staples, produce, frozen foods, and consumable supplies—rather than red plums specifically. The mismatch between the code's narrow scope and the breadth of solicitations tagged to it suggests either tagging drift in state procurement systems or that the code serves as a catch-all placeholder within broader food service contracts rather than a targeted procurement line.

State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include state health and human services agencies, county and city school boards, county correctional facilities, and state-operated institutions. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) appears twice in the recent set, posting for groceries at Big Spring State Hospital (IFB HHS0017660, due July 27, 2026) and food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026), suggesting repeat activity by state institutional food service procurement. School districts dominate the opportunity mix—Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Bulloch County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools (Georgia), Henry County Schools (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), and Fulton County Schools (Georgia) all posted food and nutrition procurements in the recent window. Geographic activity clusters heavily in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Connecticut, Missouri, California, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas HHSC's grocery bid for Big Spring State Hospital (IFB HHS0017660, approximately $32,226 annual historical spend, due July 27, 2026) and the Bridgeport Board of Education's grocery items solicitation supporting the National School Lunch Program (IFB BNB052266, over 1,100 line items, due June 30, 2026, with Buy American and Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act compliance required). The code shows modest velocity but lacks decision signal: opportunities are real and recurring, but the code itself does not reliably identify red plums or specialty frozen fruit procurement specifically.
