The variety of organic plucots known as organic early dapple plucot that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50355706 Frozen organic early dapple plucot is a Commodity code that maps to school nutrition procurement for fresh and frozen produce supplied to school districts' food service operations. Recent state and local solicitations under this code reveal that purchasing bodies are acquiring comprehensive produce inventories—apples, berries, broccoli, carrots, leafy greens, citrus fruits, peppers, tomatoes, melons, and specialty items like kiwis and mangos—alongside frozen grocery items, dairy, meats, and condiments to support National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program operations. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with recent activity from independent school districts in Georgia (Douglas County, Hancock County, Early County, Decatur, Savannah-Chatham County), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), and Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education), as well as state-level procurement from Georgia. Deliveries occur Monday through Friday to central warehouses and individual school sites, with firm pricing throughout the contract year (typically July 1 through June 30), transportation and packing included in bid prices, and no separate fuel surcharges permitted. All vendors must comply with Buy American provisions (minimum 51% domestic agricultural content), maintain HACCP plans with 24/7 recall accessibility, carry $500,000 to $2,000,000 in general liability insurance, satisfy E-Verify authorization, and provide product formulation statements, nutritional analyses, and health inspection records.

Geographic concentration is strongest in Georgia, which accounts for the majority of recent activity across multiple school systems and a state-level solicitation. Missouri and Connecticut show secondary activity. Representative recent opportunities include the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across two geographic areas with approximately $5.5 million in estimated annual spending (due March 4, 2026); the Rockwood R-VI School District's grocery items procurement for over 900 line items supporting approximately 6,900 daily lunch participants (due April 29, 2026); the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's annual contract for 72 fresh produce items across 60 school sites (due April 23, 2026); and the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases' IFB for over 1,100 grocery line items supporting the Bridgeport Board of Education (due June 30, 2026). All solicitations employ IFB or RFP structures with sealed bid submission, public bid openings, and awards made to lowest responsive and responsible bidders, with contracts routinely renewable for up to three additional one-year terms.
