UNSPSC 50345856: Frozen perdrigon plum

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

UNSPSC 50345856 Frozen perdrigon plum, a Commodity code, describes specialized frozen fruit products procured by state and local education and health agencies to support school nutrition programs, state institutional food service, and child care operations. State and local governments buy frozen fruit under this code as a component of broader grocery and food service procurement — bundled within multi-category food bids that span proteins, produce, dairy, pantry staples, and consumable supplies. The issuing bodies are primarily school districts (both independent and county boards of education), state health and human services agencies operating state hospitals and supported living centers, and head start child care providers. Education agencies dominate the activity, with recent solicitations from Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Bulloch County Board of Education (Georgia), Henry County Schools (Georgia), City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), Fulton County Schools (Georgia), Early County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut), and Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri); state-level health procurement appears in Texas Health and Human Services Commission institutional food service bids and Oregon Department of Corrections facility food procurement.

Geographic activity clusters heavily in Georgia, with repeat school district food procurements throughout the state; Texas state institutional food service represents a secondary concentration, followed by scattered activity in Connecticut, Missouri, and California. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017660 for groceries at Big Spring State Hospital (bids due July 27, 2026), covering approximately 110 line items of food and beverage products with a prior-year spend baseline of $32,226; the City of Bridgeport Board of Education IFB BID052266 for over 1,100 grocery line items supporting the National School Lunch Program (bids due June 30, 2026), requiring 51 percent domestic agricultural content and compliance with Buy American and school nutrition standards; Head Start of Greater Dallas IFB 26-GP for approximately 32,409 cases of frozen foods, produce, and meat products across primary, secondary, and tertiary suppliers (bids due June 24, 2026), with a total estimated procurement value of $969,460.94; and Hancock County Board of Education IFB SN002-2027 for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items including berries, cruciferous vegetables, and melons for the 2026-27 school year (bids due June 26, 2026). School nutrition contracts typically run July 1 through June 30, with firm pricing for the initial period and price adjustments permitted only with CPI or USDA Agricultural Marketing Service documentation; Buy American provisions requiring minimum domestic content, HACCP and food safety compliance, and liability insurance in the $500,000 to $2,000,000 range are standard across all tiers.
