UNSPSC 50443218: Frozen divinity corn

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

UNSPSC 50443218 Frozen divinity corn, a Commodity code, names a specific food product that state and local governments buy in narrow volume through institutional food-service procurement — primarily correctional facilities, state-supported living centers, schools, and senior services agencies sourcing shelf-stable and frozen food items for mass feeding. Recent state and local opportunities show frozen corn appearing as one line item within larger composite food solicitations rather than as a standalone procurement, reflecting its role as a commodity input to institutional meal programs rather than a primary procurement focus. The issuing bodies span state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois, Georgia, and Texas state agencies), county governments (Montgomery County, Pennsylvania; Gwinnett County, Georgia), school districts (multiple Georgia and Connecticut districts), and special-purpose agencies. State correctional facilities and state-supported living centers appear as repeat buyers across multiple solicitations.

Procurement activity concentrates in the South and Southwest — Texas, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Oregon, and Illinois show the most recent solicitation volume. Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' frozen-vegetable ITB (S2910000017692, posted August 6, 2026, due August 20, 2026) requesting 80,000 pounds of assorted corn as part of a 360,000-pound mixed frozen-vegetable procurement with FOB-destination delivery to Salem; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's broad institutional frozen-food IFB (HHS0017338, posted July 17, 2026, due August 18, 2026) covering 106 line items of frozen products for state hospitals and living centers statewide with an estimated annual volume of $9 million; and Gwinnett County's informal food-purchase RFQ (PE77023NONST2027000000782, posted October 13, 2026, due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable and prepared foods to support senior services. Frozen corn typically appears as a minor line item within these larger solicitations priced per pound with competitive awards to the lowest responsive bidder meeting USDA and FDA standards, temperature, and shelf-life specifications.
