UNSPSC 50353638: Frozen organic petit verdot grapes

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

UNSPSC 50353638 Frozen organic petit verdot grapes is a Commodity code that represents a narrow product line within the frozen specialty fruit category. However, recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not reflect solicitation for frozen organic petit verdot grapes specifically. Instead, the opportunities posted against this code show that school districts and municipalities are buying broad food-service categories—frozen foods, grocery items, fresh produce, and meals—as part of their child nutrition and food-service operations. The actual purchasing under the code spans school lunches, breakfasts, and related meal programs governed by the National School Lunch Program and USDA nutrition standards. Issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System) and municipal procurement offices (City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases) supporting school nutrition operations, with occasional involvement of state-level purchasing (State of Georgia). Solicitations typically mandate Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content), HACCP plans with 24/7 recall accessibility, firm fixed pricing with no fuel surcharges, compliance with USDA whole-grain and nutrition standards, and delivery within defined windows to multiple school sites.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia and Connecticut, with secondary presence in Missouri. Representative solicitations include the City of Bridgeport IFB for grocery items with 1,100+ line items across breakfast, frozen products, fruits, and meats (electronic bids due June 30, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education IFB for fresh produce spanning 200+ items including apples, berries, and specialty produce (bids due June 26, 2026), Rockwood R-VI School District's solicitation for 900+ grocery line items via NUTRIKIDS electronic submission (bids due April 29, 2026), and Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million (proposals due March 4, 2026). The code shows considerable recent activity, but the mismatch between the code's nominal scope (frozen organic petit verdot grapes) and the actual work being solicited (comprehensive school food service and produce procurement) indicates either sustained miscoding by issuing bodies or a data-quality issue in how opportunities are being tagged in the source system.
