UNSPSC 50346401: Frozen brier rose hips

The variety of rose hips known as brier rose hips that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50346401 Frozen brier rose hips is a Commodity code that spans food service procurement activity across state and local jurisdictions—particularly school districts, health and human services agencies, and correctional facilities—though frozen brier rose hips appear rarely or not at all in recent state and local solicitations. The recent opportunities tagged under this code predominantly reflect broad grocery and food service procurement, spanning produce, proteins, dairy, bakery items, frozen foods, and consumable supplies for institutional food service operations. School nutrition programs drive the volume of activity; recent bids from Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Fulton County Schools (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Henry County Schools (Georgia), Bulloch County Board of Education (Georgia), Early County Board of Education (Georgia), City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), and Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut) seek comprehensive grocery and produce contracts spanning hundreds of line items. State health and human services commissions in Texas issue large food and consumable procurement for institutional care; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple invitations for food and consumable products serving state hospitals and supported living centers. Head Start programs and correctional facilities round out the issuing-body mix.

The geographic concentration is heavy in Georgia, with multiple school districts and regional cooperatives soliciting within the state; Texas state agencies drive institutional food service procurement at scale; and scattered activity appears in Connecticut, Missouri, California, and Oregon. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017660 for FY27 groceries at Big Spring State Hospital (bids due July 27, 2026), the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases IFB for grocery items supporting the Bridgeport Board of Education Food & Nutrition Services (bids due June 30, 2026), Head Start of Greater Dallas IFB 26-GP for frozen foods, produce, and meat for child care programs with an estimated procurement value of $969,460.94 (bids due June 24, 2026), and Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce including multiple apple and berry varieties (bids due June 26, 2026). The code shows robust and sustained activity in state and local school nutrition contracting, with Buy American and USDA compliance requirements standard across most solicitations and firm pricing demanded throughout contract terms with adjustment mechanisms tied to USDA market reports or Consumer Price Index benchmarks.
