UNSPSC 50442600: Frozen cauliflowers

The type of vegetable known as cauliflowers that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50442600 Frozen cauliflowers, a Class code, does not align with recent state and local procurement activity in the dataset. The solicitations posted under this code span institutional food service for correctional facilities, state supported living centers, schools, and state agencies—but they encompass broad multi-category food procurements (proteins, grains, dairy, fresh and frozen produce, condiments, paper products, and consumables) rather than a single vegetable commodity. The code's nominal scope (frozen cauliflower specifically) appears to be a taxonomy mismatch with the work actually being solicited.

The recent opportunities posted under UNSPSC 50442600 draw from state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), county governments (Montgomery County, Pennsylvania; Gwinnett County, Georgia), school districts (Bridgeport Board of Education, Ben Hill County Schools, Early County Board of Education, Burke County Public Schools), and one city (Bridgeport, Connecticut). Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017338 for frozen food products across state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (posted July 17, 2026, due August 18, 2026, with an estimated annual volume of approximately $9 million); the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for frozen assorted vegetables including broccoli, corn, green beans, and blended varieties totaling 360,000 pounds (posted August 6, 2026, due August 20, 2026); and Gwinnett County's informal written quote (IWQ) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables (posted October 13, 2026, due October 19, 2026). Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Connecticut, with Texas representing the largest volume of recent solicitations. The activity does not reflect demand for frozen cauliflower as a standalone line item—it reflects institutional procurement of multi-line-item food bundles in which frozen vegetables appear as one component among dozens. Pursue this code only if your firm supplies broad-basket institutional food service or operates as a broadline vendor to correctional, hospital, school, or state agency customers; skip if your product line is limited to individual frozen vegetable commodities.
