UNSPSC 50355841: Frozen organic interspecific type plums

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

UNSPSC 50355841 Frozen organic interspecific type plums is a Commodity code that encompasses frozen stone fruit products purchased by state and local educational, social services, and administrative agencies. Based on recent posting activity, the code sits within a broader market for school nutrition and institutional food service procurement where state and local governments source fruits, vegetables, proteins, dairy, and shelf-stable items to support child nutrition programs, senior services, and general food service operations. The issuing bodies pursuing opportunities under or near this code are primarily school district boards of education and county social services departments; school districts appear as the dominant buyer segment, particularly for items supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, with required compliance to USDA Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content in processed products), Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act nutrition standards, and HACCP food safety protocols.

The geographic spread of recent activity is concentrated in Georgia, with Hancock County Board of Education, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Early County Board of Education, and the State of Georgia each posting solicitations between May and October 2026. A Connecticut school-district opportunity (City of Bridgeport Board of Education, posted June 30, 2026) represents activity outside Georgia. Representative recent procurements include Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items (berries, cruciferous vegetables, citrus, specialty fruits, melons) with bids due June 26, 2026 and contract term July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, canned vegetables) due October 19, 2026 with delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center; and Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid encompassing approximately 300 food items plus non-food supplies due June 8, 2026 across three schools. School district contracts typically run July 1 to June 30 with optional extensions, specify delivery Monday through Friday 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., require firm pricing with no fuel surcharges, and mandate three professional references, HACCP certification, and general liability insurance ($500,000 to $1,000,000 per occurrence).
