UNSPSC 50356100: Frozen organic quinces

The type of organic fruit known as organic quinces that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50356100 Frozen organic quinces, a Class code, does not align with the state and local procurement activity tagged under it in recent solicitations. The recent opportunities — all posted between January and June 2026 — are school district grocery and fresh-produce bids spanning hundreds of line items across staple food categories, frozen foods, dairy, meats, produce, and supplies, with no mention of quinces or quinoa products. The mismatch suggests either tagging error in the source systems or that frozen organic quinces occupy a negligible volume within the broader school nutrition procurement landscape.

The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and one city board of education — Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Decatur City Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Douglas County School System, all in Georgia or nearby states, plus a statewide Georgia procurement. The solicitations are issued as IFBs and RFPs with response dates ranging from February 18 to June 30, 2026, covering contract periods of July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Representative examples include the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-003 for Food Supply and Distribution (due February 18, 2026, estimated annual expenditure approximately $9,000,000) and Hancock County Board of Education's IFB SN002-2027 for fresh produce with over 200 line items (due June 26, 2026). Activity concentrates in Georgia, with secondary representation in Connecticut (Bridgeport) and Missouri (Rockwood). Given the absence of relevant recent opportunities under the frozen organic quinces code, this category shows little current market activity in state and local school nutrition procurement.
