UNSPSC 50444115: Frozen oregano

The variety of herbs known as oregano that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50444115 Frozen oregano is a Commodity code that encompasses dried herbs and spices purchased by state and local agencies for food service, institutional dining, and food preparation operations. State and local governments buy frozen oregano primarily through food service supply contracts that serve correctional facilities, health and human services institutions, schools, and other public dining operations. The code appears in broader food procurement solicitations where oregano is one line item among many consumables rather than as a standalone product purchase. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state health and human services agencies, state departments of corrections, and other institutional service providers that centralize food procurement through master supply agreements.

Recent activity shows the code appearing in two state-level solicitations. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 in June 2026 for food and consumable products to supply the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, with a response deadline of July 13, 2026 and a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million. The State of Georgia posted solicitation PE55645NONST2026000000009 in May 2026 requesting bids on food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a due date of June 22, 2026. Both solicitations used the IFB notice type and reflected the institutional food-service demand typical of state agency dining contracts. The geographic spread of recent activity centers on Texas and Georgia, with no evidence in the source of activity in other states.
