UNSPSC 50351610: Frozen organic clutha sun apricots

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

UNSPSC 50351610 Frozen organic Clutha sun apricots is a Commodity code that nominally describes a single frozen fruit product line, but the recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not reflect narrow sourcing of that specific item. Instead, the opportunities posted show school districts, municipal purchasing offices, and state agencies soliciting comprehensive grocery and food service procurement — including fresh produce, frozen foods, dairy, meats, grains, condiments, and kitchen supplies — for child nutrition programs and school lunch operations. The code's nominal scope and the actual work being bought diverge significantly; the recent opportunities span general food-service procurement for public schools rather than procurement of frozen organic apricots specifically.

The issuing-body mix is dominated by school district nutrition programs, with secondary participation from municipal departments and one state-level solicitation. Recent opportunities include the Bridgeport Board of Education (City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases) seeking over 1,100 grocery line items with a June 30, 2026 deadline; Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issuing an IFB for fresh produce with a June 26, 2026 deadline; Early County Board of Education (Georgia) requesting line-item bids for approximately 300-plus food items and 60 non-food products with a June 8, 2026 deadline; Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) soliciting bids on over 900 grocery items with an April 29, 2026 deadline; the City Schools of Decatur (Georgia) issuing an IFB for frozen foods and grocery items with a May 15, 2026 deadline; and the Douglas County School System (Georgia) issuing an RFP for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across two geographic areas with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million to $1.1 million per area. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and the broader Southeast, with additional activity in Connecticut and Missouri. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal product definition; procurement professionals evaluating this code should note the substantial mismatch between the code's title and the actual scope of solicitations posted under it.
