UNSPSC 50441814: Frozen cannellini beans

The variety of beans known as cannellini beans that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50441814 Frozen cannellini beans is a Commodity code capturing a narrow product line, but the recent state and local contract opportunities show the code sees minimal direct purchasing activity aligned with its nominal scope. Instead, state and local governments soliciting under related frozen-vegetable categories are buying broadly across frozen produce assortments — mixed vegetables, carrots, corn, and specialty blends — typically in bulk for institutional food service: correctional facilities, state hospitals, school districts, and county detention centers. The issuing bodies span state departments of corrections (Oregon, Texas), state health and human services commissions (Texas), school districts and boards of education (Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, Connecticut, Illinois, Pennsylvania), and county facilities (Montgomery County, Pennsylvania). Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Department of Criminal Justice appear repeatedly in the recent block, each issuing multiple frozen-vegetable ITBs and IFBs in the past quarter.

The geographic spread reflects activity concentrated in Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Virginia, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut, with school-district food procurements and state institutional food service driving the majority of visible opportunities. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections Purchasing/Contracts Division ITB S2910000017451 (Vegetables Frozen, Corn) due July 24, 2026, seeking approximately 40,000 pounds of frozen sweet corn at approximately $0.50 per pound delivered FOB to Salem; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for Food and Consumable products for El Paso State Supported Living Center, due July 13, 2026, with a historical contract value of $1.5 million; and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 (Master Grocery K-12) due April 27, 2026, encompassing 45 elementary, middle, and high schools with grocery delivery across 7 distribution kitchens. Texas and Oregon state institutions represent the highest concentration of repeat buyers, both conducting quarterly or semiannual frozen-vegetable solicitations with standing delivery contracts and Oregon-preference programs (5% for in-state fabrication, 5% for in-state headquarters, capped at 10% combined). Cannellini-specific demand does not surface in the recent block; buyers are procuring mixed assortments, single-variety high-volume items, and product equivalents. The code shows activity but narrow specialty-bean purchasing within institutional food service is not yet visible.
