UNSPSC 50357012: Frozen organic feijoa

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

UNSPSC 50357012 Frozen organic feijoa is a Commodity code that captures procurement of specialty frozen fruits for school nutrition programs and institutional food service. State and local governments buy frozen organic fruit products—including feijoa and similar specialty produce—primarily through school district nutrition programs that support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and school boards, with occasional participation from city departments of public purchase acting on behalf of school nutrition services. Procurement is driven by child nutrition service budgets and federal funding streams tied to USDA compliance, Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content in processed products), and stringent health and safety standards including whole grain requirements, low-sodium formulations, HACCP plans, allergen restrictions, and nutritional labeling.

Recent opportunities show concentrated activity in Georgia and Connecticut, with secondary activity in Missouri. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases issued IFB BNB052266 on June 30, 2026, for over 1,100 line items of grocery items (including frozen products) for the Bridgeport Board of Education with electronic bids due the same day through OpenGov; the contract runs July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with Buy American and Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act compliance required. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) posted IFB SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026, for over 200 line items of fresh produce with bids due June 26, 2026; Douglas County School System (Georgia) issued RFP SN 26-004 on February 4, 2026, for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts with approximately $5.5 million estimated annual spending and proposals due March 4, 2026. Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) solicited over 900 grocery line items on March 31, 2026, with electronic bids due April 29, 2026 via NUTRIKIDS. City Schools of Decatur (Georgia) issued IFB for frozen foods and grocery items on April 16, 2026, with sealed bids due May 15, 2026 for the 2026-27 school year. The code shows no recent opportunities in the immediate window specific to frozen organic feijoa alone; activity clusters around broader frozen and fresh produce categories within school nutrition procurement.
