UNSPSC 50355600 Frozen organic pineapples is a Class code that captures state and local procurement of shelf-stable and specialty food products for institutional food service, school nutrition programs, and senior services. The recent opportunities solicited under this code show a much broader scope than the code name alone suggests: Gwinnett County sought 35 line items of shelf-stable products including canned proteins, rice, pasta, and sauces; the City of Bridgeport Board of Education requested over 1,100 line items spanning breakfast items, cereals, frozen products, dairy, and meat; and Early County Schools sought approximately 300 food items plus non-food and paper supplies. The mix of issuing bodies comprises school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education), county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), state agencies (State of Georgia), and county senior services (Gwinnett County Department of Community Services). School districts appear as the most frequent buyers, with multiple districts purchasing institutional food through annual IFB and bid processes to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program.

Geographic activity centers in Georgia and Connecticut.
