UNSPSC 50353110: Frozen organic verdona figs

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

UNSPSC 50353110 Frozen organic verdona figs is a Commodity-level code. State and local governments use this code to procure specialized frozen produce items for institutional food service programs, particularly school nutrition operations. The recent opportunities show, however, that frozen organic verdana figs do not appear as a distinct line item in current solicitations; instead, state and local buyers are requesting bids on broad categories of frozen foods and fresh produce as part of comprehensive grocery and nutrition service procurements. The code's nominal scope—a single frozen fruit variety—does not align with actual procurement activity, which centers on large-lot frozen and fresh produce sourcing to support school meal programs under National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program mandates. Issuing bodies include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, City Schools of Decatur), city purchasing departments (City of Bridgeport), and state governments (State of Georgia). School districts dominate the recent activity, with repeat solicitations from multiple jurisdictions across Georgia, Missouri, and Connecticut.

Recent opportunities characterize the actual scope: the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases posted IFB BNB052266 on June 30, 2026 for over 1,100 grocery line items supporting the Bridgeport Board of Education Food & Nutrition Services, with electronic submissions due the same day through OpenGov; Hancock County Board of Education issued IFB SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026 for over 200 fresh produce items with sealed bids due June 26, 2026; and Douglas County School System posted RFP SN 26-004 on February 4, 2026 for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across two Georgia areas with estimated spending of approximately $4.4 million to $1.1 million by area and proposals due March 4, 2026. Georgia and Connecticut show the strongest recent activity, with additional opportunities in Missouri and across the South. The code shows little relevant recent activity specific to frozen organic figs; solicitations focus instead on broad frozen and fresh produce assortments for school nutrition programs under firm-pricing, Buy American, and nutrition-standards compliance requirements.
