UNSPSC 50357006: Frozen organic canistel

The type of organic fruit known as organic canistel that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50357006 Frozen organic canistel is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code reveal little sourcing activity for frozen organic canistel itself. Instead, the most recent solicitations—posted between January and June 2026—are school district grocery and food-service procurement opportunities: the City of Bridgeport seeking over 1,100 line items of grocery items including breakfast items, cereals, baked goods, frozen products, condiments, vegetables, fruits, dairy, and meats for the Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services; Hancock County Schools requesting fresh produce across multiple varieties; Early County Schools seeking approximately 300+ food items (meats, poultry, seafood, dairy, vegetables, fruits, grains); City Schools of Decatur issuing an IFB for frozen foods and grocery items; and the Rockwood R-VI School District requesting over 900 line items spanning snacks, fruits, vegetables, breads, grains, cereals, dairy, beverages, condiments, meats, and prepared entrees. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and boards of education, with one city agency (Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases) and one state procurement (State of Georgia). The code does not appear to be tagged to opportunities specifically seeking frozen organic canistel as a line item; the mismatch between the code name and the actual solicitation scope suggests either a cataloging artifact or that frozen organic canistel is included as a minor line item within much broader grocery procurement.

The geographic spread concentrates in Georgia and neighboring Southeast states, with recent activity from Hancock County, Early County, Douglas County, Savannah-Chatham County, and City Schools of Decatur in Georgia; Connecticut (Bridgeport); and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District). Representative recent opportunities include the Rockwood R-VI School District solicitation (IFB, due April 29, 2026) for over 900 grocery line items for the 2026-27 school year; the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 (due March 4, 2026) for fresh produce and eggs across a 30-district buying cooperative with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One; City Schools of Decatur IFB (due May 15, 2026) for frozen foods and grocery items for the 2026-2027 school year with virtual pre-bid on April 29, 2026; and the City of Bridgeport IFB BNB052266 (due June 30, 2026) for over 1,100 grocery line items supporting the National School Lunch Program. All require compliance with Buy American provisions (minimum 51% domestic agricultural content), HACCP plans, federal nutrition standards, firm fixed pricing with transportation included, and payment within 30 days.
