UNSPSC 50352532: Frozen organic royal cherries

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

UNSPSC 50352532 Frozen organic royal cherries (Commodity) covers perishable produce procurement by state and local governments, primarily school districts and municipal purchasing offices buying breakfast and lunch program ingredients alongside commodity staples. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers procuring frozen berries, fresh produce, and specialty fruit items as components of broader school nutrition bids spanning hundreds of line items across breakfast items, produce, proteins, dairy, and pantry goods. Work under this code reflects the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program compliance frameworks, with rigid specifications for whole grains, sodium limits, allergen management, nutritional labeling, and domestic-sourcing preferences under Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51% domestic agricultural content in processed items.

School districts dominate recent activity, with the Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Early County Board of Education (Georgia), City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) all posting solicitations between January and June 2026. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and reflects the broader Southeast, with Connecticut and Missouri activity appearing as outliers. Representative opportunities include the City of Bridgeport's June 2026 IFB for over 1,100 grocery line items (response due June 30, 2026) and Hancock County Board of Education's June 2026 IFB for fresh produce across apple varieties, berries, root vegetables, and specialty items (response due June 26, 2026). Pricing must remain firm for contract terms, typically July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with renewal options, and all bids require HACCP plans, food recall procedures, commercial general liability insurance ($1 million minimum per occurrence, $2 million aggregate), Buy American compliance documentation, and E-Verify authorization. Questions deadlines typically precede response dates by two to three weeks.
