UNSPSC 50443206: Frozen avalanche corn

The variety of corn known as avalanche corn that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50443206 Frozen avalanche corn, a Commodity code, does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually buying under this tag. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for frozen avalanche corn or any variant of that product; instead, the tagged records span general institutional food service procurement—frozen vegetables in mixed assortments, corn as one vegetable among many, and broad-based grocery buys for correctional facilities, schools, state hospitals, and senior services. The code's nominal scope and current procurement activity are substantially misaligned, suggesting either a cataloging error in how opportunities were tagged or that frozen avalanche corn, if it exists as a distinct commodity, sees no recent state or local demand.

The opportunities that carry this code reveal the actual procurement landscape: state departments, county corrections systems, school districts, and state supported-living centers are sourcing frozen vegetables—including corn—as line items within larger food-service contracts rather than as standalone commodity purchases. Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITBs for frozen corn (40,000 pounds) and frozen potato products (120,000 pounds) in July 2026; Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited frozen food products for state hospitals and living centers with estimated annual volume of approximately $9 million; Gwinnett County requested informal quotes for shelf-stable and frozen food items for senior services; and multiple school districts (Burke County, Early County, and Ben Hill County in Georgia, plus Bridgeport in Connecticut) bid food service contracts spanning hundreds of line items with frozen vegetables embedded. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas (multiple HHSC and TDCJ procurements), Georgia (school districts and county government), Oregon (Department of Corrections), and Pennsylvania (Montgomery County Correctional Facility). If your firm pursues this code, verify that the actual need is for frozen corn or frozen vegetable assortments within larger institutional food buys rather than a specialty product, and align positioning with school nutrition programs, correctional-facility food service, and state healthcare facility supply chains where the recent solicitations are active.
