UNSPSC 50354934: Frozen organic mericrest nectarines

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

UNSPSC 50354934 Frozen organic mericrest nectarines is a Commodity code that nominally describes a single produce line item, but the recent state and local opportunities solicited under it do not reflect frozen organic nectarines specifically. Instead, the posting block shows school districts and municipal purchasing offices soliciting comprehensive food service contracts spanning hundreds of line items — fresh and frozen produce, dairy, grains, proteins, condiments, and paper supplies — for National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program operations. The actual work being bought under this code is food-service distribution for K-12 child nutrition programs, with contracts awarded to food distributors and grocery vendors who deliver multiple product categories meeting USDA nutrition standards, Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products), HACCP compliance, and whole-grain and low-sodium specifications. Issuing bodies are uniformly school districts and boards of education across multiple states, ranging from small rural districts to mid-sized urban systems serving 6,000–30,000 daily meal participants.

Recent activity is concentrated in Georgia and adjacent regions, with the largest and most recent solicitations posted by the Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut, posted June 30, 2026, IFB due June 30, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia, IFB posted June 10, 2026, sealed bids due June 26, 2026), Early County Board of Education (Georgia, posted May 11, 2026, due June 8, 2026), City Schools of Decatur (Georgia, IFB posted April 16, 2026, due May 15, 2026), Douglas County School System (Georgia, RFP posted February 4, 2026 for a 30-district cooperative encompassing approximately $5.5 million in combined annual spending across fresh produce and eggs alone), and Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri, posted March 31, 2026, due April 29, 2026, serving nearly 19,000 students). The code shows minimal alignment with frozen organic nectarines as a discrete commodity and more accurately reflects the broader UNSPSC classification of school nutrition procurement activity at the line-item level.
