UNSPSC 50444809: Frozen lobster mushrooms

The variety of mushrooms known as lobster mushrooms that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50444809 Frozen lobster mushrooms is a Commodity code that does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specialized frozen vegetable product, but the available opportunities tagged under related frozen-vegetable and grocery codes reveal no solicitations for frozen lobster mushrooms specifically. Instead, state and local buyers are actively procuring broad categories of frozen vegetables—carrots, corn, mixed assorted blends, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, peas, and stir-fry combinations—along with comprehensive grocery and food-service portfolios for correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and state health and human services institutions.

The recent opportunity record shows heavy demand for frozen commodity vegetables from the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, state health and human services commissions, and school districts across Georgia, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Virginia, and Texas, but none target frozen lobster mushrooms as a line item or stand-alone commodity. Vendors pursuing the broader frozen-vegetable and institutional food-service market will find active competition through IFB and RFP vehicles at the state department, county, and school-district level, with response windows typically 4–6 weeks and awards made to lowest responsive bids on per-pound or per-case pricing. Institutional buyers emphasize USDA/FDA compliance, shelf-life certification (typically six months minimum), temperature control, delivery to centralized distribution points, and volume pricing on full truckload or case-lot quantities. The code itself shows no current market signal; pursue only if you can confirm direct end-user demand for frozen lobster mushrooms at scale.
