UNSPSC 50354004: Frozen organic malayan kumquats

The variety of organic kumquats known as organic malayan kumquats that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50354004 Frozen organic malayan kumquats is a Commodity code that nominally addresses a single niche produce item, but the recent state and local opportunities solicited under this code show little alignment with the code's abstract name. The opportunities instead span broadly across general grocery procurement — shelf-stable staples, fresh produce, breakfast and lunch program foods, and food-service supplies — indicating either systematic miscoding or the code's use as a catch-all placeholder within state and local procurement systems. The issuing bodies are primarily school districts and county education boards (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education) supplemented by county government services departments (Gwinnett County) and state-level purchasing (State of Georgia). These jurisdictions are acquiring food and supplies to support school nutrition programs, senior services, and institutional food service operations under USDA National School Lunch Program compliance and Buy American provisions where applicable.

The recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Connecticut, with the most recent opportunities posted between May and October 2026. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an IWQ (informal written quote) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026, delivered to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center in Lawrenceville. Hancock County Board of Education posted an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items with a due date of June 26, 2026, delivering to three school sites in Sparta, Georgia. Bridgeport Board of Education (City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases) bid electronic solicitation BNB052266 for over 1,100 line items of grocery items supporting the National School Lunch Program, due June 30, 2026, through the City's OpenGov e-Procurement Portal. Early County Board of Education requested line-by-line bids for 300+ food items and 60 non-food supplies due June 8, 2026. These solicitations emphasize firm fixed pricing inclusive of freight, compliance with health and nutrition standards, and multi-location delivery within constrained time windows.
