UNSPSC 50441919: Frozen monogram beets

The variety of beets known as monogram beets that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50441919 Frozen monogram beets is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to the code's nominal scope. State and local food service operations—departments of corrections, school districts, and health and human services agencies—do procure frozen vegetables extensively, but the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations specifically for frozen monogram beets; instead, issuing bodies are buying frozen carrots, corn, potatoes, mixed vegetables, and broad assorted frozen-vegetable lots. Oregon Department of Corrections posted ITBs on July 10, 2026, for frozen corn (40,000 pounds at $0.498 per pound historical pricing) and frozen potato products (120,000 pounds at $0.3811 per pound historical pricing), both due July 24, 2026. Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited frozen food and supplemental consumables across multiple state facilities, with HHSC issuing IFB HHS0016792V2 in May 2026 covering 210 line items of frozen and refrigerated products for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide at a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years. School districts across Georgia, Illinois, Missouri, Virginia, Connecticut, and Texas posted numerous nutrition-program food bids spanning frozen vegetables as line items within broader grocery and prepared-food procurements, but none isolated frozen monogram beets as a standalone or featured commodity.

The issuing-body mix reflects heavy concentration in state-level correctional departments and health services, alongside numerous county and municipal school districts seeking multi-category food supply. Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and various state departments of education or human services account for the majority of posted opportunities. Geographic spread is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and the broader Southeast and Midwest, with notable activity in Virginia, Missouri, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and New Jersey. The code shows little recent activity specific to monogram beets; state and local procurement in frozen vegetables centers on commodity staples (carrots, corn, mixed blends, potatoes) and prepared entrees rather than specialized beet varieties. Bidders pursuing this code should focus on the broader frozen-vegetable and prepared-food solicitations issued by corrections departments and school districts, where monogram beets might be bid as an alternative or substituted item, rather than expect standalone demand for the specific commodity.
