UNSPSC 50355604: Frozen organic kona sugarloaf pineapple

The variety of organic pineapples known as organic kona sugarloaf pineapple that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50355604 Frozen organic kona sugarloaf pineapple is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local procurement activity, maps to school nutrition programs sourcing fresh and frozen produce for National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program operations. State and local governments buying under this code are school districts and boards of education across multiple jurisdictions, supplemented by occasional city purchasing offices coordinating on behalf of education departments. Recent solicitations show school districts procuring hundreds of line items spanning fresh produce, frozen vegetables and fruits, and specialty items as components of comprehensive grocery and produce bids rather than as standalone pineapple-specific contracts. Issuing bodies include independent school districts (Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Early County in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia, Douglas County in Georgia), city school systems (City Schools of Decatur, Georgia), and purchasing offices for school boards (Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut, Hancock County in Georgia). All solicitations emphasize compliance with Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content), HACCP food safety plans, nutritional standards including whole-grain and low-sodium formulations, firm fixed pricing with no separate fuel surcharges, and delivery to multiple school sites on standard pallets Monday through Friday during specified hours.
