UNSPSC 50441824: Frozen green beans

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

UNSPSC 50441824 Frozen green beans, a Commodity code, represents a narrow food supply line that state and local governments procure as part of larger institutional food-service contracts for correctional facilities, state hospitals, state supported living centers, school districts, and senior services programs. Recent solicitations show that frozen green beans are typically purchased as one line item within broad grocery or frozen-vegetable procurements rather than as standalone commodities; the code appears tagged to opportunities where frozen vegetables in general are being acquired in bulk for meal preparation at institutional facilities.

The issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state corrections departments, state health and human services agencies, county governments, school districts, and special-purpose institutions. Recent activity shows the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Gwinnett County (Georgia), Montgomery County (Pennsylvania), Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia), Early County Board of Education (Georgia), and Burke County Public Schools (Georgia) all posting food service contracts that include frozen vegetables and green beans as line items. The geographic concentration is visible in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Pennsylvania, with Texas and Georgia showing the highest recent frequency. Oregon Department of Corrections posted an ITB in August 2026 for 360,000 pounds of assorted frozen vegetables including 120,000 pounds of green beans (Solicitation S2910000017692, due August 20, 2026, with a 5% Oregon-goods preference and 5% resident-bidder preference). Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017338 in July 2026 for frozen food products across state hospitals and supported living centers statewide, with an estimated annual volume of approximately $9 million and a maximum potential contract value of $19 million over the full contract period (due August 18, 2026). No recent opportunities post green beans as a standalone procurement; all instances occur within multi-line-item food service contracts evaluated on lowest-responsive-bidder or best-value criteria with firm fixed pricing, FOB-destination delivery, temperature and shelf-life compliance requirements, and compliance with USDA/FDA standards.
