UNSPSC 50353475: Frozen organic regina grapes

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

UNSPSC 50353475 Frozen organic regina grapes, a Commodity code, covers specialty frozen fruit products that state and local governments procure primarily through school nutrition programs supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program. In practice, frozen grapes appear as line items within larger grocery and frozen-food solicitations; they are sourced as part of comprehensive produce and prepared-food contracts rather than standalone specialty purchases. School districts and school system nutrition services departments issue the bulk of solicitations under this code's broader family. Recent opportunities show frozen and fresh produce being procured alongside hundreds of complementary grocery items—breakfast staples, dairy, proteins, condiments, and prepared entrees—all meeting USDA Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products), whole-grain standards, low-sodium formulations, and Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act nutrition requirements. Deliveries occur multiple times weekly to central warehouses and individual school sites, with firm fixed pricing including transportation and no fuel surcharges permitted; products must carry complete nutritional labeling and pass blind taste and compliance testing. Vendors must maintain HACCP plans, demonstrate 24/7 recall accessibility, carry $500,000 to $2,000,000 in general liability insurance, comply with E-Verify requirements, and satisfy federal debarment and non-collusion certifications.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Connecticut school districts, with additional opportunities in Missouri.

Rockwood R-VI School District Child Nutrition Services in Missouri solicited bids for over 900 line items of grocery items on March 31, 2026, with electronic submission required by April 29, 2026. The Douglas County School System (Georgia) issued RFP SN 26-004 on February 4, 2026, for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts in two geographic areas, with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two, sealed proposals due March 4, 2026. School districts typically reserve the right to award to single or multiple vendors on a line-item basis, with contract periods running July 1 through June 30 annually and renewal options extending up to three or four additional one-year terms at the district's discretion.
