UNSPSC 50355342: Frozen organic red lady peaches

The variety of organic peaches known as organic red lady peaches that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50355342 Frozen organic red lady peaches is a Commodity code representing a single product line within the broader frozen fruit category. State and local governments procure frozen peaches as a discrete menu ingredient within comprehensive school nutrition programs that source hundreds of food items annually to support breakfast and lunch service under federal nutrition standards. The code appears in solicitations as one line item among many frozen fruit and vegetable offerings rather than as a standalone procurement. School districts—the primary state and local buyers under this code—source frozen peaches through broader grocery and frozen-food RFQs, RFPs, and IFBs that bundle produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared items. Districts typically require products to meet USDA nutrition standards, Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act requirements, whole-grain and low-sodium specifications, and detailed nutritional labeling. Deliveries usually occur Monday through Friday to central warehouses and individual school sites, with pricing firm for contract periods and all transportation charges included in quoted prices. Vendors must maintain HACCP plans, demonstrate food-recall capability, carry liability insurance ($1 million to $2 million per occurrence), and comply with Buy American provisions mandating minimum domestic agricultural content (typically 51 percent for processed items).

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and bordering states, with the highest volume of recent solicitations originating from Georgia school districts and county systems. The City Schools of Decatur (Georgia) issued an IFB on April 16, 2026, for frozen foods and grocery items due May 15, 2026, encompassing multiple frozen product categories with delivery to ten school sites. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) posted an IFB on June 10, 2026, for fresh produce with a June 26, 2026 response date covering over 200 line items across multiple produce categories for three delivery locations. The Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia) solicited fresh produce bids in March 2026 for 72 items and 60 school sites across a multi-year contract. The Douglas County School System (Georgia) issued cooperative purchasing RFPs through the GEC Buying Cooperative in January and February 2026 for fresh produce and eggs and for broader food supply and distribution, respectively, serving 30 school districts across two Georgia regions with estimated annual spend of $4.4 million to $9 million. Missouri and Connecticut also show recent activity: Rockwood R-VI School District in St. Louis County, Missouri posted a grocery-items solicitation in March 2026 with April 29 bid due date for over 900 line items across 19,000 students, and the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut issued a grocery-items IFB on June 30, 2026 for the Board of Education with 1,100+ line items. The code shows no recent standalone frozen-peach procurement; activity appears only as embedded line items within district-wide food-service contracts rather than as dedicated commodity buys.
