UNSPSC 50356404: Frozen organic scotch or burnet rose hips

The variety of organic rose hips known as organic scotch or burnet rose hips that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50356404 Frozen organic scotch or burnet rose hips is a Commodity code that in practice captures state and local procurement of shelf-stable and frozen food products for institutional nutrition programs, school lunch operations, and senior services — though the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations specifically for frozen rose hips, organic or otherwise. The code sees activity from school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education), county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), and state departments (State of Georgia). School nutrition programs dominate the issuing-body mix, with districts procuring food items to support National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program compliance. The scope of work actually being solicited spans fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus, melons), frozen products, shelf-stable goods (canned proteins, vegetables, soups, rice, pasta, sauces, peanut butter), dairy (fluid milk in multiple fat and lactose profiles), bread products meeting whole-grain standards, meat and poultry, condiments, seasonings, and related food-service disposables and cleaning supplies. Vendors must meet Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural ingredients in processed products), provide nutritional analyses and HACCP plans, carry specified liability insurance, and comply with E-Verify requirements when contract value exceeds thresholds.

Recent activity is concentrated in Georgia and Connecticut. Hancock County Board of Education posted an IFB on June 10, 2026 for fresh produce (due June 26) spanning over 200 line items for the 2026-27 school year. Early County Board of Education posted an IFB on May 11, 2026 (due June 8) for approximately 300+ food items and 60+ non-food and paper supplies to support school meal programs. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted an IWQ (informal written quote) on October 13, 2026 (due October 19) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, and vegetables for the Department of Community Services. Bridgeport Board of Education posted an IFB on June 30, 2026 for over 1,100 line items of grocery items spanning breakfast items, frozen products, dairy, vegetables, fruits, and meat products under a contract term July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027.
