UNSPSC 50354801: Frozen organic bog myrtle

The variety of organic myrtle known as organic bog myrtle that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50354801 Frozen organic bog myrtle is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code's taxonomy span grocery items, fresh produce, frozen foods, and broad food-service distribution for school nutrition programs — none of which involve bog myrtle or any specialty foraged or organic herb products. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual solicitations suggests the code is either misapplied in the state and local procurement systems that tagged these opportunities, or the code sees minimal legitimate use in public contracting.

The recent activity does show heavy school nutrition demand across multiple states, particularly Georgia and Missouri, for mainstream fresh and frozen foodstuffs bundled into annual contracts. Issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and boards of education (Bridgeport, Hancock County, Early County, City Schools of Decatur, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County, and Rockwood R-VI), with one state-level procurement (Georgia) and one city department (Bridgeport). Geographic concentration is in Georgia and Missouri, with secondary activity in Connecticut. Representative opportunities include the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases' grocery items IFB (due June 30, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education's fresh-produce IFB (due June 26, 2026), and Douglas County School System's food-supply RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative covering 30 districts (due February 18, 2026, with approximately $4.4 million estimated spend for Area One). All require Buy American compliance, HACCP plans, firm pricing, and delivery to multiple school sites. If your firm supplies specialty foraged or certified organic produce to institutional food service, this code does not appear to be the active purchasing vehicle; mainstream food-service distribution codes would be the proper match.
