UNSPSC 50354641: Frozen organic pineapple melons

The variety of organic melons known as organic pineapple melons that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50354641 Frozen organic pineapple melons is a Commodity code with a mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities block shows no solicitations actually purchasing frozen organic pineapple melons; instead, the code appears to tag general food procurement initiatives where fresh produce, shelf-stable groceries, and school nutrition programs dominate the line items. State and local governments soliciting under this code are actually buying broad-spectrum food service products — fresh produce, meats, dairy, frozen items, grains, condiments, and non-food supplies — rather than a narrow commodity. The issuing bodies span school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education), county government purchasing offices (Gwinnett County), state-level procurement (State of Georgia), and municipal departments serving specialized populations such as senior services.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia and Connecticut. Hancock County Board of Education posted an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items — apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, root vegetables, and melons — with bids due June 26, 2026. Early County Board of Education issued a line-by-line bid for approximately 300 food items plus non-food supplies and paper products supporting National School Lunch and School Breakfast programs, with bids due June 8, 2026. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners sought informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, soups, canned vegetables) for senior services, with quotes due October 19, 2026. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases solicited bids on over 1,100 grocery line items for the Bridgeport Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services, with electronic submissions due June 30, 2026.
