UNSPSC 50353445: Frozen organic italia grapes

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

UNSPSC 50353445 Frozen organic Italia grapes (Commodity) describes specialty frozen grape products that state and local governments buy almost exclusively through school nutrition procurement — specifically through child nutrition programs seeking items that meet USDA National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program requirements, Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act nutrition standards, and Buy American provisions mandating at least 51 percent domestic agricultural content. The code sees activity across school districts and boards of education rather than broader state or county purchasing bodies. School nutrition procurement under this and related food-service codes emphasizes whole-grain compliance, low-sodium formulations, allergen management (particularly nut-free specifications), nutritional labeling, and cold-chain delivery to central warehouses and multiple school sites Monday through Friday within defined time windows, typically 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Recent state and local opportunities solicited under food categories in this family span Georgia, Connecticut, and Missouri school districts, with the most active issuers being school boards of education and independent school districts. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases procuring over 1,100 line items of grocery items for the Bridgeport Board of Education (IFB BNB052266, due June 30, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education seeking fresh produce across 200+ line items (IFB SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026); the City Schools of Decatur issuing an invitation for frozen foods and grocery items to ten school sites (IFB, due May 15, 2026); and the Douglas County School System procuring produce and eggs across a 30-district cooperative (RFP SN 26-004, due March 4, 2026, estimated $4.4 million for Area One). Payment terms typically run Net 30 to Net 45 days, contracts run July 1 through June 30 annually, and vendors must maintain $1 million general liability insurance, HACCP plans with 24/7 recall accessibility, E-Verify authorization, and often capability for emergency delivery within 24 hours at vendor expense.
