UNSPSC 50346604: Frozen thiessen saskatoon berries

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

UNSPSC 50346604 Frozen thiessen saskatoon berries is a Commodity code that does not reflect significant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's specificity to a single berry variety and freezing method yields no recent opportunities aligned with its narrow scope; the recent state and local solicitations in the source material span general grocery procurement, fresh produce, frozen foods, and commodity food service items, but none target frozen saskatoon berries specifically. The issuing bodies across recent activity include state health and human services agencies, school districts, county boards of education, and special-purpose entities such as Head Start programs and correctional facilities, all of which procure broadly across food service categories rather than seeking individual frozen berry lines.

Geographic spread of food service procurement activity is concentrated in Texas (Texas Health and Human Services Commission conducting multiple statewide facility supply), Georgia (school districts including Fulton County, Savannah-Chatham, Bulloch County, Early County, Henry County, and Douglas County), and smaller recent activity in Florida, Connecticut, New Jersey, California, Missouri, and Oregon. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017660 (July 27, 2026 response deadline) for groceries across 110+ line items at Big Spring State Hospital; the Bridgeport Board of Education's IFB BNB052266 (June 30, 2026 due date) for 1,100+ grocery and produce line items; Head Start of Greater Dallas IFB 26-GP (June 24, 2026 due date) for 32,409 cases of frozen foods and produce; and the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000016590 (April 23, 2026 due date) for frozen fruit berries—a general berry procurement, not saskatoon-specific. The absence of dedicated saskatoon berry procurement activity suggests the code captures a specialty product line with limited institutional food service demand in state and local markets.
