UNSPSC 50353480: Frozen organic ruby red seedless grapes

The variety of organic table grapes known as organic ruby red seedless grapes that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50353480 Frozen organic ruby red seedless grapes, a Commodity code, captures procurement of frozen organic grape products by state and local school nutrition programs. State and local government buyers under this code are almost exclusively school districts and boards of education, which source frozen grapes as components of breakfast and lunch offerings under the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program. Recent solicitations show frozen grapes appearing as line items within broader grocery and frozen-foods RFPs and IFBs, typically bundled with produce, dairy, and prepared foods rather than procured as a standalone item. Products must meet Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act nutrition standards, carry printed nutritional information and CN labels, contain no nuts or nut oils, and comply with Buy American provisions requiring at least 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content. Delivery schedules are standardized across school districts—Monday through Friday between early morning and early afternoon to central warehouses and individual school sites—with all packing and transportation charges included in bid pricing and no separate fuel surcharges permitted.
