UNSPSC 50443610: Frozen rossa di verona endives

The variety of endives known as rossa di verona endives that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50443610 Frozen rossa di verona endives, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code names a specialized frozen chicory variety; however, the most recent opportunities posted under or near this code involve institutional food service procurement for cafeterias, correctional facilities, state supported living centers, and school nutrition programs, which source broad categories of frozen vegetables and groceries rather than specific endive varieties. The opportunities span Gwinnett County (Georgia), Montgomery County (Pennsylvania), the State of Illinois, the State of Oregon, the State of Texas, Texas county schools, the City of Bridgeport, Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia), Burke County Public Schools (Georgia), Early County Schools (Georgia), the State of New Jersey, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice—a mix of county purchasing offices, state departments, school districts, and state agencies. Representative recent solicitations include Gwinnett County's October 2026 informal written quote (IWQ) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and proteins, Montgomery County's September 2026 IFB for groceries and meats to the correctional facility, and the State of Oregon's July 2026 ITBs for frozen corn and assorted frozen vegetables totaling over 400,000 pounds for the Department of Corrections. Texas Health and Human Services Commission and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice also issued multiple IFBs during summer 2026 for frozen food products and cafeteria items supporting state hospitals, living centers, and correctional facilities statewide. Activity is most concentrated in Texas, Oregon, Georgia, and Pennsylvania. The code itself captures minimal direct procurement activity; frozen vegetable sourcing under the code appears to be consolidated into broader institutional food service contracts where frozen vegetables are line items within larger commodity categories rather than standalone specialized purchases.
