UNSPSC 50351633: Frozen organic modesto apricots

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

UNSPSC 50351633 Frozen organic Modesto apricots, a Commodity code, does not align with active state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities block. The code nominally names a single frozen fruit product, but the recent solicitations posting under it reflect much broader food-service procurement—school districts and municipalities are soliciting multi-line grocery and food-supply contracts that span produce, dairy, meat, grains, condiments, and frozen items in the hundreds or thousands of line items. The mismatch suggests either coding error in the original postings or that this Commodity code is being used as a catch-all for frozen produce categories that extend well beyond Modesto apricots alone. State and local school nutrition programs and municipal food-service operations dominate the issuing bodies, with school districts in Georgia, Connecticut, and Missouri driving the majority of recent volume. These jurisdictions purchase through annual or multi-year term contracts that support National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program compliance, with delivery to central warehouses and individual school sites Monday through Friday on firm-fixed pricing with no fuel surcharges.

The geographic spread centers on school districts in Georgia (Douglas County, Savannah-Chatham, Hancock County, Early County, Decatur), Connecticut (Bridgeport), and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), with a Georgia state-level food procurement also posting. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Bridgeport's June 2026 IFB for over 1,100 grocery line items supporting the Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services (response due June 30, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, and citrus across 200+ line items (response June 26, 2026); and Rockwood R-VI School District's April 2026 solicitation for 900+ grocery line items including snacks, fruits, vegetables, breads, grains, dairy, and prepared entrees for approximately 6,900 lunch and 900 breakfast daily participants (response April 29, 2026). Buy American provisions requiring 51 percent domestic agricultural content, HACCP plans with 24/7 recall capability, E-Verify authorization, and general liability insurance at $500,000 to $2,000,000 per occurrence are standard across all recent postings. No recent opportunities specifically reference Modesto apricots by name or isolate frozen organic apricots as a line-item opportunity.
