UNSPSC 50347013: Frozen hackberries

The type of fruit known as hackberries that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50347013 Frozen hackberries is a Commodity-tier code. State and local governments do not actively procure frozen hackberries under this code; the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for the product named in the code. The available recent solicitations tagged to this UNSPSC code are overwhelmingly grocery and food service contracts—a mix of frozen and fresh produce, dairy, proteins, prepared foods, and consumable supplies spanning school nutrition programs, state hospital cafeterias, correctional facilities, and child nutrition services. These solicitations describe the actual work being purchased: multi-line-item food procurement for institutional food service operations, not specialized fruit sourcing. The mismatch between the code name and the work actually being solicited under it suggests either a broad tagging practice by state and local procurement offices that maps general food commodity codes to institutional food service RFPs and IFBs, or a data artifact. The code does not appear to drive procurement activity for its nominal product.

Issuing bodies span school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Bulloch County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Henry County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Fulton County Schools, Early County Board of Education, Rockwood R-VI School District, Hillsborough County Public Schools), state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia procurement offices), counties (Douglas County School System, Santa Clara County), municipalities (City of Bridgeport), and nonprofit child care operators (Head Start of Greater Dallas, Inc.). School nutrition procurement dominates the recent activity. Geographic spread includes Georgia, Texas, Florida, Missouri, Connecticut, Oregon, and California, with Georgia and Texas showing the most recent solicitation density. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017660 for groceries and food service supplies for Big Spring State Hospital (bids due July 27, 2026), the City of Bridgeport's IFB for over 1,100 grocery line items supporting school lunch and breakfast programs (due June 30, 2026), Henry County Schools' IFB for food items and products across 52 school locations (bids due May 5, 2026), and the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across two Georgia areas totaling approximately $5.5 million estimated annual spend (due March 4, 2026).
