UNSPSC 50353656: Frozen organic syrah grapes

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

UNSPSC 50353656 Frozen organic syrah grapes is a Commodity code that covers specialty frozen produce items for institutional food service, though recent state and local procurement activity under this specific code shows limited dedicated solicitation. School districts, county boards of education, and municipal school nutrition programs procure frozen and fresh produce as part of broader grocery and food supply contracts that span multiple produce categories and frozen items. The issuing bodies are primarily school districts and boards of education supported by the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program funding, with procurement concentrated in Georgia, Connecticut, and Missouri. Work being solicited includes comprehensive produce procurement — fresh apples, berries, root vegetables, cruciferous vegetables, citrus fruits, leafy greens, melons, and specialty items — as well as frozen produce components within larger grocery and food service distribution RFPs and IFBs. Vendors must comply with Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content for processed products), HACCP plans with 24/7 recall accessibility, whole-grain and low-sodium product standards, USDA nutritional compliance, and detailed food safety and traceability documentation.

Representative recent opportunities include the Hancock County Board of Education's fresh produce IFB (due June 26, 2026) covering over 200 line items across multiple apple varieties, berries, cruciferous vegetables, root vegetables, melons, citrus fruits, and specialty items for delivery to three school locations throughout the 2026-27 school year; the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative (due March 4, 2026) for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts in two Georgia areas with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two; the City Schools of Decatur's IFB for frozen foods and grocery items (due May 15, 2026) for ten designated school sites during 2026-2027; and the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's bid for 72 fresh produce items (due April 23, 2026) with estimated annual quantities ranging up to 21,125 cases for Fuji apples and delivery to 60 designated school sites. All contracts include firm fixed pricing with no fuel surcharges, payment within 30 to 45 days of delivery and inspection, and one-year terms with renewal options at the school district's discretion.
