UNSPSC 50441503: Frozen french artichokes

The variety of artichokes known as french artichokes that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50441503 Frozen french artichokes, a Commodity code, does not appear in the recent state and local procurement opportunities. The available records show no solicitations matching this specific frozen-artichoke commodity; instead, state and local buyers are actively procuring frozen vegetables in broader categories such as mixed assortments, carrots, corn, peas, broccoli, and cauliflower through dedicated single-commodity bids, as well as frozen produce bundled within comprehensive grocery and food-service contracts for institutional operations.

Frozen vegetables as a commodity group see substantial activity across multiple issuing-body types — state departments of corrections (Oregon, Texas), school districts and school nutrition programs (Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, Illinois, Connecticut), county and municipal facilities (Montgomery County, Pennsylvania; Bridgeport, Connecticut), and health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC). Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Department of Criminal Justice appear most frequently across the recent-opportunities sample, each running multiple solicitations for frozen-vegetable line items. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000017451 for approximately 40,000 pounds of frozen sweet corn, with bids due July 24, 2026, and ITB S2910000017439 for 120,000 pounds of frozen potato products (french fries, wedges, tater tots), also due July 24, 2026 — both offering five-percent preferences for Oregon-fabricated goods and Oregon resident bidders. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center, with proposals due July 11, 2026, includes frozen items as part of a broader institutional food-service scope. Activity concentrates in Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Illinois; procurement runs year-round to support school-year nutritional programs (July start dates common) and continuous institutional food service. No recent solicitation specifically names frozen french artichokes as a distinct line item.
