UNSPSC 50351554: Frozen organic macoun apples

The variety of organic apples known as organic macoun apples that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50351554 Frozen organic macoun apples is a Commodity code representing a single product line within school nutrition procurement. State and local governments buy frozen organic macoun apples almost exclusively through child nutrition service contracts that bundle this item alongside hundreds of other fresh, frozen, and dry grocery products supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program. Recent solicitations show the code is tagged to broad food-service RFPs and IFBs issued by school districts and boards of education, where macoun apples appear as one line item among comprehensive grocery or produce catalogs rather than as standalone procurement events. The product appears in multiyear annual contracts (typically July 1 through June 30) with firm pricing, Buy American compliance (51% domestic content minimum for processed items), USDA nutrition standards, and strict delivery and storage requirements tied to school meal operations.

School districts across Georgia, Connecticut, and Missouri dominate recent activity, with the Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, and Rockwood R-VI School District all posting comprehensive grocery and produce bids between January and June 2026. The Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases issued a grocery-items RFQ (BNB052266) due June 30, 2026, covering over 1,100 line items with strict nutritional compliance, while Hancock County Board of Education sought fresh produce under IFB SN002-2027 due June 26, 2026, specifying multiple apple varieties including Macoun-adjacent cultivars (Ambrosia, Fuji, Gala, Granny Smith, Honey Crisp, Jazz) across 200+ produce line items. Macoun apples as a Commodity code show minimal standalone solicitation activity; pursuit requires alignment with broader food-service bids where the code is one of hundreds of items rather than a dedicated contract vehicle.
