UNSPSC 50444606: Frozen mizuna lettuce

The variety of lettuce known as mizuna lettuce that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50444606 Frozen mizuna lettuce is a Commodity code representing a single specialized produce product. State and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal recent relevance; the opportunities posted from July 2026 backward do not include solicitations for frozen mizuna lettuce. Instead, recent state and local buyers have posted bids for broader frozen vegetable categories—frozen corn, frozen potatoes, assorted frozen vegetables, carrots, and mixed vegetable blends—predominantly from correctional facilities, school districts, and health and human services agencies. The code's narrow scope (mizuna specifically, rather than generic frozen leafy greens or mixed vegetables) appears to place it outside the mainstream purchasing patterns currently visible in state and local procurement.

The issuing bodies active in frozen vegetable procurement span state departments of corrections in Oregon and Texas, state health and human services agencies in Texas, school nutrition programs across Georgia, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Missouri, Virginia, and Texas, and county correctional facilities. Oregon's Department of Corrections and Texas's Department of Criminal Justice and Health and Human Services Commission appear as repeat buyers of frozen vegetables on a contract basis. Representatives of broader frozen vegetable solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for frozen corn (S2910000017451, bids due July 24, 2026) and frozen potato products (S2910000017439, bids due July 24, 2026); the Bridgeport Board of Education's grocery items procurement (BNB052266, bids due June 30, 2026); and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumables bid (HHS0016792V2, closed March 19, 2026). Geographic activity concentrates in Oregon, Texas, Georgia, and other southern and mid-Atlantic states, with school districts and correctional agencies driving volume. No recent opportunities explicitly name frozen mizuna lettuce as a line item or primary commodity, suggesting the code sees limited state and local procurement activity at present.
