UNSPSC 50356002: Frozen organic hirado buntan pomelo

The variety of organic pomelos known as organic hirado buntan pomelo that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50356002 Frozen organic hirado buntan pomelo is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local procurement activity, does not align with the work actually being solicited under it. The code's nominal scope — a specific frozen citrus product — bears no relationship to the food procurement opportunities posted in the source records. Instead, state and local government buying activity recently tagged under this code involves broad-spectrum food purchasing for school nutrition programs, senior services, and institutional food service, encompassing shelf-stable pantry items, fresh produce, frozen products, dairy, proteins, and ancillary food-service supplies across dozens to hundreds of line items per solicitation. The issuing bodies include county boards of education (Hancock County, Early County in Georgia; Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), county departments and social services (Gwinnett County), and state-level procurement (State of Georgia). This represents a systematic mismatch between the code's specificity and the breadth of food categories state and local jurisdictions are actually purchasing.

The code shows recent activity in Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County, Early County, and state-level) and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport), with solicitations posted between May and October 2026. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services (due October 19, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning 200+ line items across apple varieties, berries, root vegetables, and specialty fruits (due June 26, 2026); Early County Board of Education's line-by-line bid for 300+ food items plus non-food supplies for school lunch and breakfast programs (due June 8, 2026); and City of Bridgeport's electronic bid for grocery items supporting the National School Lunch Program, covering 1,100+ line items with Buy American and nutritional compliance requirements (due June 30, 2026). The code exhibits little relevant recent activity and warrants review for potential reassignment or clarification of tagging protocols.
