UNSPSC 50352504: Frozen organic bing cherries

The variety of organic cherries known as organic bing cherries that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50352504 Frozen organic bing cherries is a Commodity code that addresses specific frozen fruit products state and local governments procure as part of broader food and nutrition supply contracts. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not isolate frozen bing cherries as a standalone line item; instead, they reflect school districts, counties, and state agencies bundling produce and food staples into integrated nutrition service contracts. The work involves responding to multi-line-item food bids where frozen produce options—when present—compete alongside fresh produce, shelf-stable grocery items, and specialty dietary products. Issuing bodies include county boards of education (Hancock County Schools, Early County Schools), municipal school systems (City of Bridgeport Board of Education), county social-services and aging departments (Gwinnett County Department of Community Services), and state procurement offices (State of Georgia). School districts dominate the market under this code, driven by National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program funding and Buy American domestic-sourcing mandates that shape item selection and pricing requirements.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia and Connecticut. Hancock County Board of Education posted an IFB on June 10, 2026 for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items for the 2026–27 school year, with bids due June 26, 2026; Early County Board of Education issued a line-by-line food bid on May 11, 2026 with a June 8 deadline covering approximately 300 food items and 60 non-food products; and the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases sought grocery items for the Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services on June 30, 2026 across over 1,100 line items. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted an informal written quote for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items on October 13, 2026 with quotes due October 19, 2026. The State of Georgia posted a broader food and kitchen products bid on May 15, 2026 due June 22, 2026. All school-district contracts enforce 51 percent domestic agricultural content under Buy American provisions, require HACCP certification, specify firm pricing with no fuel surcharges, and mandate compliance with USDA nutrition standards and Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act requirements. Award goes to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, often with the option to split by vendor or line item at the buyer's discretion.
