UNSPSC 50347035: Frozen soursops

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

UNSPSC 50347035 Frozen soursops is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure frozen soursops primarily through institutional food service contracts, though recent solicitation activity shows the code appearing as a catch-all classification in much broader grocery and food distribution procurement. The actual buying pattern under this code reflects general frozen food and produce categories rather than soursops specifically. Issuing bodies include state health and human services departments (particularly Texas HHSC), county and municipal school districts, county boards of education, public school systems, correctional facilities, and child care and head start agencies. Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears as a repeat buyer, issuing multiple statewide food and consumable procurements covering state hospitals and state-supported living centers.

Geographic spread spans Texas (dominant), Georgia, Florida, Missouri, Connecticut, Oregon, California, and New Jersey, with the heaviest recent activity in Texas and Georgia.
