UNSPSC 50356803: Frozen organic thai lessard sugar apple

The variety of organic sugar apples known as organic thai lessard sugar apple that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50356803 Frozen organic thai lessard sugar apple is a Commodity code that nominally describes a single frozen fruit product, but the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code shows little alignment with that specific commodity. The nine opportunities posted between January and June 2026 are overwhelmingly broad-scope food service contracts—grocery items, fresh produce, and food supply and distribution services—that serve school nutrition programs across multiple states. When opportunities do reference frozen products, they appear as line items within much larger multi-category procurements rather than as the primary focus. The issuing bodies are primarily school districts and boards 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, Douglas County School System) supplemented by a state-level food procurement (State of Georgia) and one city procurement (City of Bridgeport). School nutrition programs dominate the activity, with contracts supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program as the consistent operational driver.

The geographic concentration is predominantly Georgia, with secondary activity in Connecticut, Missouri, and broader multi-state cooperative purchasing (the Douglas County School System RFP serves 30 districts across two areas in Georgia). Representative recent opportunities include the Bridgeport Board of Education's grocery items RFB (BNB052266, due June 30, 2026) spanning over 1,100 line items with Buy American domestic-content requirements; Hancock County Board of Education's fresh produce IFB (PE67080NONST2027000000013, due June 26, 2026) covering 200+ line items across apple varieties, berries, and specialty produce; and the Douglas County School System RFP for food supply and distribution (PE64810NONST2026000000046, due February 18, 2026) with an estimated annual expenditure of $9 million serving approximately 25,500 students. Across all solicitations, vendors must meet Buy American provisions, maintain HACCP plans, provide food recall accessibility, carry general liability insurance (typically $1 million per occurrence, $2 million aggregate), comply with E-Verify authorization, and deliver to multiple school sites on firm fixed pricing with no fuel surcharges. This code shows active procurement volume but poor specificity alignment—the taxonomy classification does not reflect the actual scope of work being bought.
