UNSPSC 50346601: Frozen honeywood saskatoon berries

The variety of saskatoon berries known as honeywood saskatoon berries that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50346601 Frozen honeywood saskatoon berries is a Commodity code that does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specialized berry product, but the most recent solicitations tagged with this UNSPSC code across state departments, counties, school districts, and other public bodies show no actual demand for saskatoon berries or products matching this specific commodity description. Instead, the available opportunities posted under this code cover broad institutional food procurement — including fresh produce, frozen vegetables and mixed berries, proteins, dairy, pantry staples, and food service supplies — for state hospitals, state supported living centers, county senior services, school nutrition programs, and child care facilities. The disconnect between the code's narrow product name and the scope of work being actually solicited suggests the code is either underutilized, incorrectly applied in classification by procurement offices, or serves as a catch-all placeholder for frozen berry commodities that do not fit more precisely defined codes.

Activity spans multiple states and issuing bodies. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted the largest and most frequent opportunities, including multi-million-dollar statewide contracts for frozen food products serving state hospitals and state supported living centers; the Oregon Department of Corrections solicited frozen sliced or diced apples; school districts in Georgia, Connecticut, New Jersey, and Mississippi posted produce and grocery bids covering frozen vegetables and mixed berries as line items within larger food procurements; and county departments and boards of education in Georgia, Florida, and elsewhere included frozen produce in institutional food service contracts. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas HHS statewide frozen food contract (IFB HHS0017338, due August 18, 2026, estimated at approximately $9 million annually with up to $19 million potential value over the full period), the Oregon Department of Corrections frozen apples bid (S2910000017684, due August 19, 2026, for approximately 40,000 pounds), the Hancock County Board of Education fresh and frozen produce solicitation (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026), and the Bridgeport Board of Education grocery bid (BNB052266, due June 30, 2026, covering over 1,100 line items including frozen products). No recent opportunities specifically solicit frozen saskatoon berries by name or equivalent product description.
