UNSPSC 50351604: Frozen organic black apricots

The variety of organic apricots known as organic black apricots that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50351604 Frozen organic black apricots is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of frozen fruit products for institutional food service, specifically school nutrition programs. The recent opportunities show school districts and municipal education boards purchasing frozen and fresh produce as line items within comprehensive grocery and food-supply contracts that support National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program operations. Frozen organic black apricots appear as individual line items in larger multi-category food solicitations rather than as standalone procurements. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code are predominantly school districts and county boards of education, including 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, Rockwood R-VI School District, and Douglas County School System in Georgia. A few municipal and state purchasing offices also participate—the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases and the State of Georgia both issued recent food and grocery solicitations—but school nutrition programs dominate the purchasing activity under this code.

Georgia shows the heaviest recent activity, with Douglas County School System, Savannah-Chatham County, Hancock County, Early County, and Decatur all posting solicitations between February and June 2026. Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District) and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport) account for additional recent volume. Representative recent opportunities include the Bridgeport Board of Education's IFB for over 1,100 grocery line items due June 30, 2026, the Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for over 200 fresh-produce items due June 26, 2026, the Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid due June 8, 2026, the City Schools of Decatur's IFB for frozen foods and grocery items due May 15, 2026, and the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million and $1.1 million across two areas, due March 4, 2026. All contracts run July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, require firm fixed pricing with no fuel surcharges, mandate Buy American compliance (51 percent domestic agricultural content), demand HACCP plans and food-recall procedures, and compensate vendors Net 30 to Net 45 days from delivery.
