UNSPSC 50351628: Frozen organic katy apricots

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

UNSPSC 50351628 Frozen organic katy apricots, a Commodity code, shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect broad school-nutrition grocery and fresh-produce solicitations — including comprehensive multi-category food service bids, fresh-produce-only RFPs, and main-line food-distribution RFPs — rather than solicitations for frozen apricots specifically. The code appears to be a mislabeling artifact in how issuing bodies have tagged these opportunities in their procurement systems, and practitioners evaluating this code should treat it as a narrow, specialty commodity with minimal visible demand in recent state and local markets.

The recent opportunities themselves span school districts and city purchasing offices across Connecticut, Georgia, and Missouri, with activity concentrated in school-nutrition program support under the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program. School districts including Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Douglas County School System have issued RFPs, RFQs, and IFBs for produce, frozen items, and comprehensive grocery bundles due between April 2026 and June 2026. The State of Georgia and the GEC Buying Cooperative (serving 30 Georgia school districts) have also issued solicitations. These procurements emphasize Buy American compliance, HACCP food safety plans, whole-grain and low-sodium standards, firm fixed pricing with no fuel surcharges, and delivery to multiple school sites. If your firm supplies frozen specialty produce to school-nutrition programs, monitor this code for mislabeled opportunities; otherwise, the code itself does not present an actionable category right now.
