UNSPSC 50353101: Frozen organic bardajic figs

The variety of organic figs known as organic bardajic figs that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50353101 Frozen organic bardajic figs is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure shelf-stable and specialty food items for school nutrition programs, senior services, and institutional feeding operations. Recent solicitations reveal that the code captures general food-supply procurement rather than the specific frozen-fig product its name suggests; the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia), City of Bridgeport (Connecticut), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Early County Board of Education (Georgia), and the State of Georgia have all posted bids for broad food-item categories including canned proteins, fresh produce, dairy, grains, condiments, and miscellaneous grocery products to support National School Lunch Program compliance, school breakfast initiatives, and community-services meal provisioning. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and county boards of education, supplemented by city procurement on behalf of school systems and county senior-services departments. Jurisdictions soliciting under this code require vendors to meet Buy American provisions (typically 51 percent domestic agricultural content for processed products), maintain HACCP certification and food-safety protocols, carry liability insurance, comply with debarment screening and E-Verify authorization, and accept firm fixed pricing with no fuel surcharges over multi-year contract terms (generally July 2026 through June 2027 with optional extensions).

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Connecticut. Representative solicitations include Gwinnett County's October 2026 informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, canned vegetables) with quotes due October 19, 2026, and Hancock County Board of Education's June 2026 invitation for bids on over 200 line items of fresh produce (multiple apple varieties, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, citrus fruits, leafy greens, and specialty items) for the 2026-27 school year with bids due June 26, 2026. The City of Bridgeport sought bids on over 1,100 line items of grocery items including breakfast items, cereals, frozen products, condiments, vegetables, fruits, dairy, and meat products for the school food-service contract period July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 (bids due June 30, 2026). Early County Board of Education requested line-by-line bids for approximately 300 food items and 60 non-food and paper cleaning supplies with bids due June 8, 2026. Award typically goes to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with price evaluation on a per-unit basis and delivery required Monday through Friday during specified morning hours to school central warehouses and designated sites on standard pallets with freight prepaid.
