UNSPSC 50357027: Frozen organic quenepas

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

UNSPSC 50357027 Frozen organic quenepas is a Commodity code. State and local governments solicit this code almost exclusively to support school nutrition programs — breakfast and lunch — under the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program. Recent opportunities show that school districts are procuring a broad range of frozen and fresh produce, dairy, protein, and prepared items alongside commodity codes like this one, often bundling them in large omnibus grocery RFPs or IFBs with 300 to 1,100+ line items. The code itself is narrow — frozen organic quenepas, a specialty tropical fruit — but appears in the sourcing mix as part of districts' efforts to meet USDA nutrition standards, offer diverse menu items, comply with whole-grain and low-sodium requirements, and eliminate artificial additives and nuts. School districts are the dominant issuing body, though the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases and the State of Georgia also appear in the recent activity.

Recent opportunities cluster in Georgia and the broader Southeast, with activity also in Missouri and Connecticut. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases issued IFB BNB052266 for over 1,100 grocery line items due June 30, 2026 (closed).
