UNSPSC 50351650: Frozen organic tomcot apricots

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

UNSPSC 50351650 Frozen organic tomcot apricots is a Commodity code that encompasses frozen stone fruit products procured by state and local education, social services, and nutrition programs. In practice, state and local governments rarely solicit frozen apricots as a standalone line item; the code appears primarily within broader food and produce procurement for school nutrition programs, senior services, and public feeding operations. The issuing bodies include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education, Early County Board of Education), county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), and state agencies (State of Georgia). Recent solicitations frame frozen fruit as part of larger multi-item food contracts that include fresh produce, canned goods, dairy, and proteins, with delivery and storage requirements tied to school kitchens and central warehouses.

Hancock County Schools issued an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items for the 2026-27 school year with bids due June 26, 2026; Gwinnett County posted an informal written quote request for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (including canned vegetables and similar staple categories) due October 19, 2026; and the State of Georgia solicited food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 due date. The City of Bridgeport issued an RFQ for grocery items supporting the National School Lunch Program with over 1,100 line items due June 30, 2026, specifying frozen products alongside fresh and shelf-stable goods, Buy American provisions requiring 51 percent domestic agricultural content, and nutritional compliance with the Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act. Early County Board of Education requested line-by-line bids for 300+ food items plus non-food supplies due June 8, 2026. Frozen apricots, when present, compete within these large consolidated food contracts rather than standalone opportunities, and procurement occurs primarily through school nutrition cycles aligned with academic-year contracts running July through June.
