UNSPSC 50355609: Frozen organic sugarloaf pineapple

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

UNSPSC 50355609 Frozen organic sugarloaf pineapple is a Commodity code representing a single produce item; however, recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code overwhelmingly procure multi-thousand-line-item grocery bundles for school nutrition programs, including frozen foods, fresh produce, dairy, meats, grains, and prepared items rather than frozen pineapple specifically. The scope of work under current opportunities spans food service to school districts' National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs, with products meeting USDA whole-grain and nutrition standards, Buy American domestic-content requirements (typically 51 percent for processed items), HACCP food-safety protocols, and delivery to multiple school sites Monday through Friday. Issuing bodies are predominantly school boards and school districts (Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System) plus one state-level procurement (State of Georgia) and one city department (City of Bridgeport). School districts dominate the activity, with several districts (Douglas County, Savannah-Chatham, and others) issuing multiple line-item solicitations annually for produce, eggs, main-line distribution, and grocery staples.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Connecticut, with the largest recent opportunities in Georgia (Douglas County's $9 million food supply RFP, GEC cooperative fresh-produce procurement at $4.4–$1.1 million across 30 districts, Decatur and Savannah-Chatham produce and frozen-foods IFBs) and Bridgeport's multi-category grocery IFB in Connecticut. Representative opportunities include the City of Bridgeport's IFB BNB052266 for over 1,100 grocery line items due June 30, 2026; Hancock County Board of Education's IFB #SN002-2027 for 200+ fresh-produce items due June 26, 2026; and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts, due March 4, 2026, with estimated annual spend of $4.4–$1.1 million. Contracts typically run July 1 through June 30 with firm pricing, delivery to central warehouses and individual schools, payment at Net 30–45 days, and no separate fuel surcharges. The code as narrowly defined (frozen organic sugarloaf pineapple) sees minimal direct solicitation; the mismatch between the commodity-level code and the actual procurement bundles suggests the code's use in state and local systems is categorical rather than item-specific.
