UNSPSC 50346102: Frozen pineapple quince

The variety of quince known as pineapple quince that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50346102 Frozen pineapple quince is a Commodity code that shows limited recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily school districts, state health and human services agencies, and county correctional facilities purchasing broad categories of frozen, fresh, and prepared food products for institutional food service operations. Recent solicitations reflect procurement of comprehensive grocery and food-service supplies rather than pineapple or quince specifically—the code appears to be tagged to general food-service line items within larger blanket solicitations rather than to discrete procurement of this frozen fruit commodity.

The issuing bodies represent a mix of state health agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), county and municipal school districts (Bulloch County Board of Education, Fulton County Schools, Douglas County School System, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Rockwood R-VI School District, Henry County Schools, Decatur City Schools, Bridgeport Board of Education), county correctional facilities (Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department of Correction), state correctional agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections), and child-care and nutrition-support organizations (Head Start of Greater Dallas). Geographic spread spans Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, California, Oregon, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's solicitation (IFB HHS0017660, response due July 27, 2026) for groceries supplying Big Spring State Hospital under a blanket food contract with historical annual spend of $32,226.36; the City of Bridgeport's IFB (BNB052266, closed June 30, 2026) for over 1,100 line items of grocery items supporting the Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services under National School Lunch Program requirements; and the County of Santa Clara's ITB (ITB-PRC-FY26-0617, response due February 5, 2026) for dried fruits and nuts to the Sheriff's Department of Correction at Elmwood Correctional Facility. The code shows no distinct market for frozen pineapple quince as a standalone procurement line; vendors pursuing this code should expect to compete on comprehensive food-service supply contracts where frozen fruits appear as minor line items within much larger grocery or commodity portfolios.
