UNSPSC 50443807: Frozen rocambole garlic

The variety of garlic known as rocambole garlic that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50443807 Frozen rocambole garlic, a Commodity code, captures state and local government procurement of specialized frozen vegetable ingredients for institutional food service operations, though recent opportunities show the code sees minimal direct activity — the code itself appears misaligned with the actual frozen vegetable buys posted under it, which instead reflect broad frozen produce and grocery procurement by correctional facilities, school districts, and state agencies.

State and local buyers under related frozen vegetable codes span correctional departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Montgomery County Correctional Facility in Pennsylvania), school districts across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools, Decatur City Schools, Early County Board of Education, Burke County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Dallas Independent School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System), and state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia Department of Human Services). The Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Department of Criminal Justice appear as repeat issuers. Recent opportunities emphasize frozen mixed vegetables, carrots, corn, and assorted blends as line items within larger institutional grocery procurements rather than specialized or brand-specific frozen garlic products. Oregon Department of Corrections issued multiple ITBs for frozen vegetables (carrots, corn, assorted blends) with responses due in late April and June 2026, Texas TDCJ procured cafeteria food products including frozen specialty entrees with a May 2026 deadline, and Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut) and multiple Georgia school districts issued comprehensive grocery solicitations encompassing frozen items as components of 300–1,100-line-item food service bids. Geographic activity concentrates in Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Missouri, and Virginia, with school nutrition programs driving the highest recent volume. The code shows little targeted procurement activity specific to frozen rocambole garlic; recent opportunities tag the code to broader frozen vegetable and grocery buys where garlic appears, if at all, as a minor ingredient or condiment component rather than as a standalone commodity line. Business development professionals should treat this code as a proxy for participation in large institutional frozen-produce and grocery frameworks rather than as a dedicated frozen-garlic sourcing channel.
