UNSPSC 50354948: Frozen organic spring red nectarines

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

UNSPSC 50354948 Frozen organic spring red nectarines, a Commodity code, frames a narrow product line that receives minimal solicitation activity at the state and local level. Recent opportunities tagged under this code do not actually specify frozen organic spring red nectarines; instead, school districts and county purchasing offices are soliciting broad grocery and fresh-produce packages that span dozens or hundreds of line items per contract. The Hancock County Board of Education's fresh-produce RFQ (posted June 10, 2026) for the 2026-27 school year covers over 200 line items of fresh produce, including apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, citrus, leafy greens, and specialty items — a scope far wider than the coded commodity. State and local food procurement under this code is driven by school districts and county nutrition programs supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, though county senior-services departments and state agency supply operations also participate. Vendors in this market must meet Buy American requirements (minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed products), comply with Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act nutrition standards, maintain HACCP plans, carry liability insurance, and participate in state E-Verify and debarment-verification systems.

Activity appears concentrated in Georgia and Connecticut. The Hancock County Board of Education (Sparta, Georgia), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Lawrenceville, Georgia), Early County Board of Education (Georgia), and the State of Georgia all posted solicitations between May and June 2026. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases posted a grocery RFP for the Bridgeport Board of Education on June 30, 2026, requiring electronic submission through OpenGov e-Procurement and blind testing of samples by school personnel and laboratory technicians. The Gwinnett County informal written quote (IWQ 140229, posted October 13, 2026, due October 19, 2026) sought approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, and canned vegetables for the Department of Community Services, with delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center. None of the five recent opportunities explicitly lists frozen organic spring red nectarines as a line item, suggesting the code designation does not align with actual procurement activity under it.
