UNSPSC 50443423: Frozen yamato cucumbers

The variety of cucumbers known as yamato cucumbers that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50443423 Frozen yamato cucumbers is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities in the source do not reflect procurement of frozen yamato cucumbers specifically. Instead, the opportunities tagged under or near this code show purchasing of broader frozen vegetable categories—frozen corn, frozen potato products, frozen mixed vegetables, and assorted frozen vegetable blends—by correctional facilities, school districts, and state health agencies across Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Missouri, and Illinois. The code appears to sit within a larger frozen-produce family that state and local buyers use for institutional food service, but the tagged opportunities do not isolate yamato cucumber procurement as a distinct line item or focus area.

The issuing bodies are predominantly state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), school districts and boards of education (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, multiple Georgia school systems, Dallas ISD, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri), county correctional facilities (Montgomery County, Pennsylvania), and one municipal school procurement (Bridgeport, Connecticut). Recent ITBs and IFBs from the Oregon Department of Corrections appear with particular frequency, including solicitations for frozen corn (ITB S2910000017451, due July 24, 2026), frozen potato products (ITB S2910000017439, due July 24, 2026), and frozen assorted vegetables (ITB S2910000016558, due April 22, 2026), all offering Oregon-resident and Oregon-fabricated goods preferences of five percent each. School nutrition programs consistently bid frozen and fresh produce on annual cycles (typically July start dates) with Buy American requirements, HACCP compliance mandates, and whole-grain or low-sodium specifications. Geographic activity clusters in Oregon, Georgia, Texas, Pennsylvania, and the upper Midwest, with individual school districts in Virginia, Connecticut, Missouri, and Illinois also visible. The recent opportunities show no incumbent yamato-cucumber-specific suppliers named, and the source material does not support a finding that frozen yamato cucumbers represent a distinct or active procurement category in state and local markets today.
