UNSPSC 50354915: Frozen organic earliglo nectarines

The variety of organic nectarines known as organic earliglo nectarines that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50354915 Frozen organic earliglo nectarines is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local opportunities. The recent opportunities tagged to this code are school nutrition program procurements for broad grocery and fresh produce items—not frozen organic nectarines specifically. The City of Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut is seeking bids on over 1,100 line items of grocery items spanning breakfast foods, frozen products, vegetables, fruits, dairy, and meats for the 2026–27 school year (IFB BNB052266, due June 30, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia is requesting bids on over 200 line items of fresh produce including apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, and citrus fruits for the 2026–27 school year (IFB SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026); and Early County Board of Education in Georgia is seeking line-by-line bids for approximately 300 food items and 60 non-food products to support the National School Lunch Program (IFB, due June 8, 2026). The issuing bodies are school districts and boards of education, not specialized produce wholesalers. All solicitations require Buy American compliance (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content in processed products), HACCP food safety plans, firm fixed pricing with no fuel surcharges, delivery to multiple school sites, and compliance with Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act or USDA nutrition standards.

Recent activity is concentrated in Georgia and Connecticut, with additional opportunities in Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District serving nearly 19,000 students, due April 29, 2026) and Georgia school districts participating in cooperative purchasing arrangements through the GEC Buying Cooperative. The Douglas County School System in Georgia manages procurement for 30 school districts across two areas totaling approximately $5.5 million in annual estimated fresh produce and egg spending (RFP SN 26-004, due March 4, 2026), and a separate main-line food distribution RFP for approximately $9 million in annual food supply and delivery (RFP 26-003, due February 18, 2026). The City Schools of Decatur in Georgia and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System are also actively procuring frozen foods, grocery items, and fresh produce through IFBs. The code's nominal scope—frozen organic nectarines—bears no meaningful relation to these solicitations, signaling a tagging mismatch rather than genuine demand for this specific Commodity.
