UNSPSC 50441832: Frozen kentucky wonder beans

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

UNSPSC 50441832 Frozen Kentucky Wonder Beans, a Commodity code, represents frozen vegetable procurement by state and local governments for institutional food service — primarily correctional facilities, state hospitals, state supported living centers, school districts, and county facilities. State and local buyers use this code to purchase frozen specialty vegetables as cost-effective, shelf-stable components of bulk meal preparation. The recent opportunities block shows no solicitations tagged specifically to frozen Kentucky wonder beans; instead, the source documents frozen vegetable procurement more broadly under related codes covering frozen corn, frozen assorted vegetables, frozen carrots, and frozen mixed vegetables. The issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), county correctional facilities (Montgomery County, Pennsylvania), school districts (multiple Georgia and Missouri districts, Fairfax County Virginia, Dallas ISD), and transit or support agencies. Repeat buyers include the Oregon Department of Corrections, which has issued multiple frozen vegetable ITBs within the past four months, and various school nutrition programs operating under National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program mandates.

The geographic spread of recent frozen-vegetable activity centers on Oregon, Texas, Georgia, and Pennsylvania, with secondary activity in Missouri, Connecticut, Illinois, and New Jersey. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' Invitation to Bid S2910000017451 for Frozen Corn (ITB, due July 24, 2026), specifying 40,000 pounds of whole kernel sweet corn at $0.498 per pound (prior award reference), FOB destination to Salem with six-month minimum shelf life and FDA/USDA compliance; ODOC's companion ITB S2910000017439 for Frozen Potatoes (ITB, due July 24, 2026), covering 120,000 pounds across three deliveries with IQF Grade A or B specifications and one-year shelf life; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0016792V2 for Supplemental Food & Consumables (posted May 19, 2026, originally due March 19, 2026), encompassing 210 line items including frozen specialty foods for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide with $4.5 million maximum potential value over three years. School nutrition bids from Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia), Early County Schools (Georgia), Burke County Schools (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), and Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) all solicit frozen vegetables as part of comprehensive food-service procurement under National School Lunch Program Buy American requirements, with pricing firm for initial contract periods and six-month or quarterly escalation formulas tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index documentation. Oregon preferences (5% for Oregon-processed goods plus 5% for Oregon-headquartered bidders) appear consistently on ODOC opportunities, while school districts typically require HACCP plans, $500,000 to $1,000,000 general liability insurance, debarment certification, and E-Verify compliance.
