UNSPSC 50181902: Frozen bread

UNSPSC 50181902 Frozen bread, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product category within school nutrition and institutional food service procurement. State and local governments purchase frozen bread products—including sandwich loaves, rolls (hamburger, hot dog, dinner), buns, and specialty items—primarily to support National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program operations across K-12 school districts. Recent solicitations show frozen bread is often bundled into larger grocery or food-supply procurements rather than purchased as a standalone category, though dedicated fresh and frozen bread bids appear regularly when districts segment product categories by shelf-life or delivery requirements.

School districts dominate the issuing bodies under this code, with activity concentrated in Georgia, Connecticut, Texas, Missouri, and Illinois. The City of Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut) issued a dedicated bread and bakery RFQ in June 2026 (Solicitation BNB058266, due June 26, 2026) for 19 line items including hamburger buns, hot dog buns, muffins, and dinner rolls, with domestic content requirements (51% U.S. agricultural commodities), firm fixed pricing, and delivery to multiple school sites via electronic portal. Henry County Schools (Georgia) posted multiple fresh bread IFBs in March 2026 (Solicitation PE67510NONST2026000000028, due April 17, 2026) seeking dinner rolls, hamburger buns, sliced bread, and hot dog buns in whole grain and white varieties, delivered weekly to 53 nutrition sites with temperature control and seven-day minimum shelf life. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office solicited weekly food orders including frozen bread components in June 2026 (Solicitation 27497DVAQUINCB52820, due June 17, 2026). Early County Board of Education (Georgia) sought bread products meeting USDA whole-grain specifications in a line-by-line food bid (Solicitation PE55045NONST2027000000006, due June 8, 2026) as part of a broader 300+ item procurement. Buy American provisions, HACCP certification, nutritional compliance with the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act, and 24-hour emergency delivery capability are standard across recent opportunities. Pricing is firm fixed for contract terms, typically one year with renewal options, and all bids require proof of general liability insurance and compliance with federal debarment and E-Verify requirements.
