UNSPSC 50355829: Frozen organic empress plums

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

UNSPSC 50355829 Frozen organic empress plums is a Commodity code that covers specialty frozen fruit products; however, state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal recent alignment with the nominal scope. The three school-district and one county solicitations appearing in recent state and local opportunities span broad food-service categories—shelf-stable pantry staples, fresh produce, breakfast and lunch program items, and mixed grocery products—rather than the specific frozen organic plum line item the code nominally describes. The one state-level bid (State of Georgia, May 2026) references "food, supplies, and other kitchen products" without detailed scope disclosure. When state and local jurisdictions do procure frozen fruit, they typically bundle it with broader produce or food-service contracts rather than issuing category-specific RFQs or IFBs for a single fruit variety.

The recent opportunities originate from school districts (Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education) and county government (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), concentrated in Georgia and Connecticut. The Gwinnett County informal written quote (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026) sought 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services; the City of Bridgeport's electronic bid for over 1,100 grocery line items (due June 30, 2026) supported the National School Lunch Program; Hancock County's IFB for fresh produce (bids due June 26, 2026) itemized over 200 produce lines for the 2026-27 school year; and Early County's line-by-line food bid (due June 8, 2026) encompassed 300+ food items plus non-food supplies. No recent solicitations explicitly target frozen organic empress plums or comparable single-SKU frozen specialty fruit. This code shows little decision-relevant recent activity for business development purposes under its stated commodity scope.
