UNSPSC 50355711: Frozen organic flavor jewel plucot

The variety of organic plucots known as organic flavor jewel plucot that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50355711 Frozen organic flavor jewel plucot, a Commodity code, nominally refers to a specific frozen fruit product, but recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not reflect that narrow scope. Instead, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases on behalf of the Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, the State of Georgia, and Early County Board of Education are all soliciting broad food procurement — shelf-stable pantry items, fresh produce, dairy, protein, specialty foods, and non-food kitchen supplies — typically to support school nutrition programs and senior services. The actual work being bought under this code encompasses meal-support procurement at scale: informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed food items (peanut butter, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, canned vegetables) bound for senior services; bids spanning over 1,100 line items of breakfast cereals, frozen products, condiments, and meats for school lunch and breakfast programs; sealed bids for over 200 line items of fresh produce (apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, citrus, melons, specialty fruits) for school cafeterias; and line-by-line bids for 300+ food items plus 60+ non-food supplies (disposables, cleaning products, paper goods, janitorial equipment) supporting National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program operations. School districts and county nutrition services departments predominate as issuing bodies, with occasional state-level procurement activity.

Georgia (specifically Gwinnett County, Hancock County, Early County, and the State of Georgia) and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport) show the most recent activity under this code. The most recent opportunity is Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote request (IWQ 140229) for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items, with quotes due October 19, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. and delivery required to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center by December 7, 2026. Earlier in 2026, Hancock County Board of Education issued sealed bids for fresh produce (over 200 line items across multiple apple, berry, and vegetable varieties) for the 2026-27 school year, with bids due June 26, 2026, and Early County Board of Education requested line-by-line bids for 300+ food items and 60+ non-food supplies with a June 8, 2026 due date. The City of Bridgeport's bid for grocery items spanning over 1,100 line items, posted June 30, 2026, required Buy American compliance (51% domestic agricultural ingredients), HHFKA nutrition standards, and was subject to blind testing by school personnel.
