UNSPSC 50442707: Frozen giant white celery

The variety of celery known as giant white celery that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50442707 Frozen giant white celery is a Commodity code that does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's abstract definition does not align with the actual scope of recent solicitations tagged under it, which focus on broad institutional food procurement—including proteins, frozen vegetable assortments, dairy, grains, condiments, and paper products for schools, correctional facilities, and state-supported living centers—rather than frozen celery as a discrete line item or primary procurement focus.

The mismatch suggests that either the code was applied to these opportunities as a catch-all classification within a larger food procurement family or that the commodity itself sees minimal standalone demand in the state and local market. No representative solicitations specifically target frozen giant white celery by name or as a centerpiece of a food services RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB. Across Georgia, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, Connecticut, and New Jersey, recent institutional food procurement activity has centered on comprehensive grocery, frozen-vegetable-mix, and specialty-food awards to support correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and state-operated health and human services campuses. If pursuing this code, assess whether the opportunity set justifies engagement at the commodity level or whether broader frozen-vegetable or institutional-food-service family codes better reflect actual demand signals.
