UNSPSC 50355359: Frozen organic springcrest peaches

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

UNSPSC 50355359 Frozen organic springcrest peaches is a Commodity code that captures frozen fruit products supplied to school nutrition programs and child nutrition services. State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily school districts and boards of education procuring shelf-stable frozen fruits as components of broader grocery or produce bids that support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program. Frozen peaches and similar frozen fruits appear as line items within larger comprehensive food solicitations rather than as standalone procurements, bundled alongside fresh produce, dairy, meats, grains, and prepared entrees. Issuing bodies are predominantly K–12 school districts of varying sizes, from regional consolidated districts serving under 7,000 students to larger metropolitan school systems. Procurement notices take the form of Invitations for Bid (IFB) and Requests for Proposal (RFP), with vendors required to meet USDA Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content in processed products where applicable), HACCP food safety plans, liability insurance minimums of $500,000 to $2,000,000, E-Verify compliance, debarment certification, and nutritional standards under the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act and whole-grain requirements.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and neighboring states, with substantial procurement volume from the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System (which aggregates purchasing for 30 districts via the GEC Buying Cooperative), City Schools of Decatur, and Hancock County Board of Education. Outside the Southeast, the Rockwood R-VI School District in St. Louis County, Missouri and the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut have issued major grocery procurements. Representative recent solicitations include the Bridgeport Board of Education's BNB052266 (due June 30, 2026, IFB for 1,100+ grocery line items with frozen products included), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB #SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026, fresh produce with freezer-capable delivery to three school sites), Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 via GEC Buying Cooperative (due March 4, 2026, approximately $4.4 million estimated annual spend across two geographic areas for 30 school districts), and Rockwood R-VI's CHILDNUTRITIONSERVICESGROCERYITEMS20262027 (due April 29, 2026, over 900 line items for approximately 19,000 students). All contracts run July 1 through June 30 of the following year, with firm pricing, no separate fuel surcharges, and delivery to school sites or central warehouses Monday through Friday during instructional hours.
