UNSPSC 50345859: Frozen primetime plums

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

UNSPSC 50345859 Frozen primetime plums, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are buying under this designation. Recent solicitations tagged with this code span a far broader range of food service procurement — comprehensive grocery and food product contracts for state hospitals, school districts, and correctional facilities, along with specialized produce and frozen-goods purchases — but frozen plums themselves appear in none of the recent opportunities on record. The code's nominal scope diverges sharply from current buying activity, suggesting either a cataloging mismatch in the source system or the code's use as a catch-all for miscellaneous food commodity procurements.

State and local buying under this code involves institutional food service across multiple issuing-body types: state health and human services departments (Texas HHSC for hospital and state supported living centers), county and municipal school districts (Fulton County, Bulloch County, Henry County, Hancock County, Early County, Decatur, Savannah-Chatham, Rockwood, Douglas County), one Head Start agency (Greater Dallas), and county correctional and sheriff departments (Santa Clara County). Texas HHSC appears repeatedly with statewide supplemental food and consumable contracts. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHSC's IFB HHS0017660 for FY27 groceries at Big Spring State Hospital (due July 27, 2026, ~$32,000 historical baseline), the City of Bridgeport's IFB for 1,100+ grocery line items supporting the Board of Education's National School Lunch Program (due June 30, 2026), and the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts in Georgia (due March 4, 2026, ~$5.5 million estimated annual spend across two areas). Activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with secondary activity in Connecticut, Missouri, California, Oregon, Florida, and other states. These procurements emphasize firm fixed pricing, Buy American and USDA compliance, HACCP certification, liability insurance ($500,000 to $2,000,000 minimums), and delivery to multiple school sites or institutional facilities within tight timeframes, typically Monday through Friday between 6:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.
