UNSPSC 50443228 Frozen hudson corn, a Commodity code, covers frozen corn products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service operations including schools, correctional facilities, state hospitals, state supported living centers, and senior services programs. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing frozen corn in bulk quantities—from 40,000 pounds for a single Oregon Department of Corrections truckload to 80,000 pounds as part of mixed frozen vegetable buys—priced competitively on a per-pound basis and delivered via refrigerated transport to central distribution centers or facility warehouses. The code draws solicitations from state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies, county governments, county school nutrition programs, and independent school districts, with repeat activity from Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and various county and school district purchasing offices across multiple states.

Recent opportunities span the Pacific Northwest, Texas, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Connecticut, and New Jersey. Oregon Department of Corrections posted ITBs in July 2026 for 40,000 pounds of frozen whole kernel corn (due July 24, 2026, ITB S2910000017451) and in August 2026 for 80,000 pounds of frozen corn as part of a 360,000-pound assorted frozen vegetable procurement (due August 20, 2026, ITB S2910000017692), both with Oregon fabrication and resident-bidder preferences totaling ten percent; Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited frozen food products including frozen corn as part of broader institutional meal service contracts for state hospitals and supported living centers (multiple IFBs through August 2026); and Georgia school districts and county purchasing offices issued food bids naming frozen corn among dozens of line items for school lunch and senior services programs. Pricing benchmarks from recent awards and bids range from $0.498 to $0.67 per pound depending on quantity, packaging, and delivery terms. Vendors responding to this code must comply with FDA/USDA standards, HACCP regulations, minimum shelf-life requirements (typically three to six months), temperature maintenance specifications (frozen solid at 0 degrees Fahrenheit or lower at removal, delivered at 10 degrees Fahrenheit or less), and FOB destination delivery with freight prepaid on palletized loads to institutional receiving locations.
