UNSPSC 50353401: Frozen organic alicante grapes

The variety of organic table grapes known as organic alicante grapes that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50353401 Frozen organic alicante grapes is a Commodity code that in recent state and local solicitations covers shelf-stable and fresh food products procured for school nutrition programs, senior services, and institutional food service. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show little direct demand for frozen organic alicante grapes specifically; instead, they reflect broad food-service procurement spanning fresh produce, dairy, proteins, condiments, and prepared items. Issuing bodies include county school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education), county departments (Gwinnett County Department of Community Services), and state agencies (State of Georgia). The mix skews heavily toward school nutrition programs supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, with secondary activity in county senior services and general institutional food service. Vendors compete on firm fixed pricing, domestic sourcing compliance (including Buy American provisions requiring 51 percent domestic agricultural content where applicable), product quality and nutritional standards, and logistics capability including 24- to 72-hour delivery windows.

Recent solicitations span Georgia and Connecticut. Hancock County Board of Education sought fresh produce (including apple varieties, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, citrus, and specialty items) with bids due June 26, 2026 under IFB #SN002-2027.

Early County Board of Education requested line-by-line bids for approximately 300 food items plus 60 non-food and paper supplies with bids due June 8, 2026. All contracts emphasize compliance with Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act nutrition standards, USDA whole-grain requirements, HACCP certification, and E-Verify authorization. The code shows no recent activity specifically targeting frozen organic grapes as a distinct line item.
