UNSPSC 50355849: Frozen organic lone star red plums

The variety of organic plums known as organic lone star red plums that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50355849 Frozen organic lone star red plums is a Commodity code that represents a narrow product line within school nutrition procurement, though recent state and local solicitations show minimal specific demand for this item in isolation. State and local governments purchase frozen fruits as components of broader grocery and food-service contracts that support National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program operations across school districts. The code's nominal specificity—organic lone star red plums—does not align with the recent opportunities in the source, which solicit frozen fruits as line items within comprehensive grocery and frozen-food procurements rather than as standalone products. School districts, county boards of education, and municipal school systems issue these contracts under IFB and RFP mechanisms, typically as annual or multi-year awards with firm pricing and Buy American provisions requiring domestic agricultural content. Vendors must meet HACCP food-safety plans, provide product recalls within 24 hours, carry liability insurance, and demonstrate federal E-Verify authorization and debarment compliance.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Connecticut, with solicitations posted between February and June 2026. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases sought grocery items including frozen products (BNB052266, due June 30, 2026) for the Board of Education, spanning 1,100+ line items with firm pricing and delivery to central warehouse and school sites. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia issued an IFB for fresh produce (PE67080NONST2027000000013, due June 26, 2026) with over 200 line items and delivery to three school locations. The Douglas County School System in Georgia issued an RFP for fresh produce and eggs (PE64810NONST2026000000047, due March 4, 2026) covering 72 items and serving 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million across two geographic areas. The Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri solicited grocery items including frozen and fresh products (CHILDNUTRITIONSERVICESGROCERYITEMS20262027, due April 29, 2026) encompassing 900+ line items across six schools. The code shows no recent standalone solicitations for frozen organic plums but appears as a potential line item within larger frozen-fruit categories in school nutrition contracts.
