UNSPSC 50443501: Frozen bambino eggplants

The variety of eggplants known as bambino eggplants that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50443501 Frozen bambino eggplants is a Commodity code with minimal recent activity directly aligned to its narrow specification. The code shows no recent solicited opportunities for frozen bambino eggplants specifically. The recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code encompasses frozen vegetables more broadly—frozen corn, frozen assorted vegetables, and frozen potatoes—which share distribution and cold-chain handling characteristics but do not match the commodity's precise definition. State and local procurement activity in the frozen-vegetable space centers on institutional food service: correctional facilities, school districts, state health and human services agencies, and municipal school nutrition programs represent the core buyer segments.

State and local governments soliciting frozen vegetables—whether corn, assorted blends, carrots, or potatoes—operate through standard institutional procurement channels: ITB, IFB, and RFP notices issued by state purchasing divisions, county correctional facilities, school districts, and state health agencies primarily in Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Missouri, and Virginia. The Oregon Department of Corrections has been a repeat solicitor for frozen vegetables, posting multiple ITBs for corn, carrots, and assorted blends (S2910000017451 on July 10, 2026; S2910000017439 on July 10, 2026 for frozen potatoes; S2910000016589 and S2910000016558 in April 2026), typically with response windows of 7–14 days and firm pricing per pound or per unit FOB destination. School districts across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Virginia have issued large annual food bids spanning hundreds of line items including frozen vegetables as components of broader grocery and food-service solicitations (Ben Hill County Schools, Bulloch County Board of Education, Rockwood R-VI School District, Fairfax County Public Schools, City Schools of Decatur). Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted substantial statewide food and consumable solicitations (HHS0016792, HHS0017449) covering frozen specialty foods and vegetables for state supported living centers and state hospitals. Procurement activity shows no recent or standing demand specifically for frozen bambino eggplants; the code's narrow commodity definition does not align with current state and local solicitation scope.
