UNSPSC 50345904: Frozen nana pomegranates

The variety of pomegranates known as nana pomegranates that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50345904 Frozen nana pomegranates (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally identifies a single frozen fruit product, yet the sourced opportunities show no solicitations for frozen pomegranates, named or implied. Instead, state and local agencies are actively procuring broad categories of frozen foods, fresh produce, groceries, and specialty frozen fruits—berries, mixed vegetables, tropical fruit blends—under this and adjacent codes, but frozen pomegranates specifically do not appear in any posted bid or RFP from the past six months.

The recent-opportunities block reflects heavy activity in school nutrition procurement (Hancock County Board of Education fresh produce, City Schools of Decatur frozen foods and grocery, Bulloch County Board of Education school nutrition, Early County Board of Education food products, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System fresh produce, Henry County Schools food items), state facility food service (Texas Health and Human Services Commission supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and supported living centers, Oregon Department of Corrections frozen fruit berries), and county or special-program food distribution (Head Start of Greater Dallas grocery products, Rockwood R-VI School District child nutrition services, Hillsborough County Public Schools fresh fruit and vegetable program, Santa Clara County Sheriff Department dried fruits and nuts, Douglas County School System food supply and distribution and fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative). The issuing-body mix spans school districts, state health and corrections agencies, counties, and child-care organizations across Texas, Georgia, Florida, Missouri, Oregon, California, Connecticut, New Jersey, and other states. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017660 for groceries at Big Spring State Hospital due July 27, 2026, covering approximately 110 line items of proteins, prepared foods, dairy, pantry staples, and beverages with a prior-year spend of $32,226.36; the City of Bridgeport (Connecticut) IFB BNB052266 for over 1,100 line items of grocery items for school food service due June 30, 2026, subject to Buy American and Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act requirements; and the Head Start of Greater Dallas IFB 26-GP for approximately 32,409 cases of frozen foods, produce, and meat products meeting Child and Adult Care Food Program standards, due June 24, 2026, with estimated procurement value of $969,460.94 and evaluation weighting unit price (weight 5), product quality (weight 4), delivery and service (weight 3), specification compliance (weight 2), and small business/minority/woman-owned status (weight 1). The code's nominal scope—a single frozen tropical fruit—bears no relation to what is actually being bought at state and local level, which is full-portfolio food service supply. Vendors pursuing this code should recognize it as a data-classification mismatch and instead target the broader frozen-food and grocery families where documented activity exists.
