UNSPSC 50346803: Frozen thai lessard sugar apple

The variety of sugar apples known as thai lessard sugar apple that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50346803 Frozen Thai Lessard Sugar Apple, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code nominally describes a specific frozen fruit product, but the recent opportunities tagged under it reflect broad-spectrum food and grocery procurement for institutional food service—primarily school nutrition programs, state hospitals, and correctional facilities. State and local buying under this code does not center on specialty frozen Thai fruit but rather encompasses comprehensive grocery and frozen food contracts spanning proteins, dairy, produce, condiments, and prepared foods delivered to institutional kitchens and centralized food service warehouses.

The issuing bodies soliciting under this code are predominantly school districts and boards of education (Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Bulloch County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Henry County Schools, Fulton County Schools, Douglas County School System, City Schools of Decatur, Hillsborough County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District) and state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission for Big Spring State Hospital and El Paso State Supported Living Center, Head Start of Greater Dallas). The geographic spread concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Connecticut, and Florida, with secondary activity in New Jersey, California, and Oregon. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017660 for groceries and food service supplies to Big Spring State Hospital with bids due July 27, 2026 (the most recent solicitation); the City of Bridgeport Board of Education's IFB BNB052266 for over 1,100 line items of grocery items supporting the National School Lunch Program with bids due June 30, 2026; and the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-003 for food supply and distribution services for 32 schools serving approximately 25,500 students, with proposals due February 18, 2026. Procurement values range from approximately $969,461 (Head Start of Greater Dallas) to $9,000,000 (Douglas County School System annual food service spending), with Texas HHSC contracts reaching potential values of $4,500,000 over three years. All contracts emphasize HACCP compliance, Buy American provisions, nutrition standards (including USDA Smart Snacks and whole-grain requirements), firm fixed pricing, and weekly or more frequent deliveries to multiple school or facility sites during restricted morning hours.
