UNSPSC 50345876: Frozen st catherine plum

The variety of plums known as st catherine plum that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50345876 Frozen St Catherine Plum, a Commodity code, does not match the work state and local governments are actually procuring under this code. The recent-opportunities block contains no solicitations for frozen St Catherine plums or any single frozen-fruit product line. Instead, state and local buyers posting opportunities tagged to this code are soliciting comprehensive grocery procurement — bundled food service contracts spanning proteins, produce, dairy, pantry staples, beverages, and consumables for institutional feeding operations. The code shows no focused commodity activity; the mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the underlying data or that this highly specific fruit variety is rarely procured as a standalone line item by state or local bodies.

The recent opportunities reveal the actual scope: institutional food service for state hospitals, school districts, Head Start programs, and county corrections facilities. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted multiple IFBs for supplemental food and consumables spanning 210 line items (HHS0016792V2, due March 19, 2026; HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026; HHS0017660, due July 27, 2026), with historical annual spend ranging from $32,000 to $1.5 million. School districts dominate the recent activity — Bridgeport (Connecticut), Hancock County (Georgia), Early County (Georgia), Decatur (Georgia), Bulloch County (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI (Missouri), Savannah-Chatham (Georgia), and Henry County (Georgia) all posted fresh-produce or comprehensive-grocery IFBs between February and July 2026. Head Start of Greater Dallas sought primary, secondary, and tertiary grocery suppliers for approximately 32,409 cases annually (IFB 26-GP, due June 24, 2026; $969,460.94 estimated value). The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited frozen fruit berries (40,000 pounds, ITB S2910000016590, due April 23, 2026), and Santa Clara County sought dried fruits and nuts for detention food services (ITB-PRC-FY26-0617, due February 5, 2026). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia (six school districts plus state-level procurement), Texas (state hospital and supported-living-center systems), with secondary activity in Missouri, Connecticut, Florida, California, and Oregon. No recent opportunity specifically targets frozen St Catherine plums as a discrete procurement line, and the code shows no actionable market signal for this commodity.
