UNSPSC 50353902: Frozen organic arctic beauty kiwi fruit

The variety of organic kiwi fruit known as organic arctic beauty kiwi fruit that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50353902 Frozen organic arctic beauty kiwi fruit (Commodity) covers frozen specialty fruit items, though state and local purchasing activity under this code shows minimal direct solicitation aligned with the code's specific product designation. The recent opportunities block contains no bids explicitly requesting frozen organic kiwi fruit; instead, the posted solicitations focus on broader food-service categories including fresh produce, shelf-stable pantry items, dairy, proteins, and prepared goods for school nutrition programs and county senior services. When kiwi appears in state and local procurement, it is typically embedded as one line item among hundreds within larger fresh-produce or general-grocery contracts rather than as a standalone commodity purchase. The issuing bodies are school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education, Early County Board of Education), county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), and state purchasing offices (State of Georgia), with school food-service departments driving the majority of activity given National School Lunch Program compliance requirements and year-round supply needs.

Geographic activity centers on Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County, Early County, and state-level procurement) and Connecticut (Bridgeport), with representative recent opportunities including Hancock County Board of Education's fresh-produce IFB (due June 26, 2026) encompassing over 200 line items of produce with kiwis and specialty items specified, and Early County Board of Education's food line-by-line bid (due June 8, 2026) spanning approximately 300 food items across meats, dairy, vegetables, fruits, and grains. The Gwinnett County IWQ 140229 (due October 19, 2026) and Bridgeport Board of Education's grocery contract (due June 30, 2026) emphasize shelf-stable pantry items and processed goods rather than fresh specialty fruit. State and local procurement under this specific Commodity code remains sparse; frozen organic arctic beauty kiwi fruit is not independently marketed in the posted opportunities, and vendors pursuing this category should expect to bid kiwi as a minor line item within large cooperative-purchasing food frameworks or informal RFQ processes rather than as a primary focus.
