UNSPSC 50355823: Frozen organic earliqueen plums

The variety of organic plums known as organic earliqueen plums that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50355823 Frozen organic earliqueen plums is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of fresh and frozen produce items for school nutrition programs, institutional food service, and child nutrition initiatives. The recent solicitations reveal that state and local governments are purchasing frozen and fresh produce as line items within broader grocery and food-service contracts that support National School Lunch Programs, breakfast initiatives, and child nutrition services. The scope extends beyond the nominal code designation to encompass comprehensive fresh produce procurement (apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, citrus, leafy greens, melons, root vegetables, and specialty items), frozen foods, and related grocery items delivered on firm fixed pricing to multiple school sites or central warehouses with no separate fuel surcharges. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include independent school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Early County Board of Education in Georgia, City Schools of Decatur in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Douglas County School System in Georgia), municipal school boards (Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), and state governments (State of Georgia). School nutrition programs dominate the buyer profile, with contracts spanning 2026–2027 school years and emphasizing Buy American provisions, whole grain standards, low sodium formulations, HACCP compliance, and food recall accessibility.

Geographic concentration centers on Georgia, which accounts for the majority of recent postings (Hancock County, Early County, Decatur, Savannah-Chatham, and Douglas County all located in Georgia), with secondary activity in Connecticut (City of Bridgeport), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), and state-level procurement in Georgia. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce with a June 26, 2026 response deadline spanning 200+ line items of apples, berries, vegetables, and melons for July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027 delivery to three school sites; Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts with approximately $5.5 million estimated annual spending and a March 4, 2026 deadline; City of Bridgeport's grocery items IFB (Solicitation BNB052266) with over 1,100 line items due June 30, 2026; and Rockwood R-VI School District's grocery items procurement with over 900 line items due April 29, 2026. Contracts uniformly require firm fixed pricing for the full term, centralized or distributed delivery Monday–Friday, compliance with federal school nutrition regulations, and insurance minimums ranging from $500,000 to $2 million.
