UNSPSC 50353646: Frozen organic rubired grapes

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

UNSPSC 50353646 Frozen organic rubired grapes is a Commodity code that covers fresh and processed fruit products for purchase by state and local food service operations, though recent state and local solicitations under this code show little purchasing activity focused specifically on frozen organic grapes. Instead, the recent opportunities reveal that state and local jurisdictions are soliciting food products more broadly—shelf-stable groceries, fresh produce, and meal-service items—through which frozen grapes may be purchased as line items within larger food aggregations. School districts, county governments, and state agencies are the primary issuing bodies, sourcing food to support National School Lunch Programs, senior services, and general institutional meal service. The work is driven by nutrition compliance requirements, particularly Buy American provisions requiring minimum domestic content in processed products and adherence to Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act standards where applicable.

Recent activity spans Georgia and Connecticut. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued an IFB on June 10, 2026 for fresh produce spanning 200+ line items including berries for the 2026–27 school year, with bids due June 26, 2026. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) posted an RFQ on May 11, 2026 for 300+ food items and non-food products, due June 8, 2026. The City of Bridgeport (Connecticut) sought grocery bids on June 30, 2026 through its e-Procurement portal for the Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services, requiring 51% domestic content and compliance with nutritional standards; the contract term runs July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia) requested informal written quotes on October 13, 2026 for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services, due October 19, 2026, with delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center required by December 7, 2026. The State of Georgia posted a general food, supplies, and kitchen products bid on May 15, 2026 with a June 22, 2026 response date. Frozen grapes specifically do not appear named in any posted solicitation; the code's recent activity is subsumed within broader food aggregations where frozen fruit is a subordinate line item rather than a primary procurement driver.
