UNSPSC 50353607: Frozen organic carnelian grapes

The variety of organic wine grapes known as organic carnelian grapes that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50353607 Frozen organic carnelian grapes (Commodity) does not align with state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities block. The code describes a single specialized produce item, yet the recent solicitations consistently target broad-based school nutrition procurement spanning hundreds of line items across fresh and frozen groceries, proteins, dairy, grains, and supplies. No recent opportunity specifically references frozen organic carnelian grapes or frozen grapes of any variety. The solicitations posted across the region frame produce procurement in terms of apples, bananas, berries, leafy greens, carrots, peppers, tomatoes, and citrus—staple commodities rather than specialty organic varieties. One solicitation (Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004) does specify produce and eggs but lists approximately 72 line items of conventional produce with no mention of specialty frozen organic products. The code shows little relevant recent activity.

State and local school nutrition programs are actively procuring food supplies through school district child nutrition services, county boards of education, and city school systems across Georgia, Missouri, and Connecticut. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases issuing IFB BNB052266 for over 1,100 line items of grocery items to support the National School Lunch Program (due June 30, 2026), the Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia posting IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce across 200+ line items (due June 26, 2026), and the Rockwood R-VI School District in St. Louis County, Missouri soliciting bids for over 900 grocery line items (due April 29, 2026). The Douglas County School System in Georgia issued RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One, demonstrating the scale of institutional procurement in the region. Activity concentrates in Georgia, Missouri, and Connecticut, with the bulk of solicitations targeting annual contracts beginning July 1, 2026, and ending June 30, 2027.
