UNSPSC 50353411: Frozen organic black emerald grapes

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

UNSPSC 50353411 Frozen organic black emerald grapes is a Commodity code that covers specialized produce items for institutional food service operations, particularly school nutrition programs. State and local solicitations under this code target school districts, county boards of education, and municipal school systems that procure fresh and frozen produce to meet federal nutrition standards and support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program. The actual procurement activity shows districts buying comprehensive fresh and frozen product assortments—apples, berries, broccoli, carrots, citrus, leafy greens, peppers, tomatoes, and similar items—often alongside parallel buys for eggs, dairy, meats, and prepared foods in single integrated grocery or produce contracts rather than as single-SKU commodity purchases. Issuing bodies include school districts of varying sizes (ranging from fewer than 6,000 to over 25,000 students), county boards of education, city school systems, and state procurement offices supporting multiple districts through cooperative buying vehicles.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, where multiple school districts and cooperative buying entities posted produce and mixed-grocery solicitations between February and June 2026, including the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts (RFP due March 4, 2026; estimated spending $5.5 million), the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's Bid 26-34 for fresh produce across 60 school sites (IFB due April 23, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce with over 200 line items (due June 26, 2026), and the City Schools of Decatur's IFB for frozen foods and grocery items (due May 15, 2026). Connecticut and Missouri school districts also posted mixed-grocery and produce solicitations—the City of Bridgeport's grocery items bid covering 1,100+ line items (due June 30, 2026) and Rockwood R-VI School District's grocery items procurement spanning 900+ lines (due April 29, 2026). All contracts carry Buy American requirements (typically 51 percent domestic agricultural content), HACCP plan mandates, firm pricing through the contract period, delivery to school sites Monday through Friday within specified windows, and payment terms of Net 30 to Net 45 days, with most running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027.
