UNSPSC 50444818: Frozen st george's mushrooms

The variety of mushrooms known as st george's mushrooms that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50444818 Frozen St George's mushrooms is a Commodity-tier code that state and local governments use to procure frozen specialty mushroom products, though the recent solicitation activity shows minimal direct procurement under this specific code. The source records contain no recent state or local opportunities explicitly soliciting frozen St George's mushrooms. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span a much broader range of frozen food items—frozen corn, frozen potatoes, frozen mixed vegetables, frozen assorted vegetables—alongside comprehensive grocery procurement, cafeteria food products, and school nutrition programs that include frozen specialty items as line items within larger food service contracts. Oregon's Department of Corrections and Texas's Department of Criminal Justice appear most frequently in the dataset soliciting frozen vegetable commodities at scale, while school districts across Georgia, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Virginia issue regular food supply bids that encompass frozen products as components of full-service food procurement.

The code shows little targeted demand for frozen mushrooms specifically; instead, state and local food procurement under frozen-vegetable-adjacent codes clusters around institutional food service for corrections facilities, school nutrition programs, and state health and human services agencies. Oregon Department of Corrections has issued multiple ITBs in recent months for frozen corn, frozen carrots, and frozen assorted vegetables with responses due in June and July 2026; Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Texas Health and Human Services Commission have solicited supplemental food and consumables including frozen items with deadlines ranging from February through July 2026. School districts in Georgia (Bulloch County, Burke County, Early County, Savannah-Chatham County, Decatur City Schools) and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI) have posted food bids for the 2026-2027 school year in March through May 2026, each covering hundreds of line items including frozen vegetables as part of broader cafeteria procurement. Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia solicited a Master Grocery K-12 contract on April 27, 2026, encompassing food delivery to 45 schools. The absence of a focused opportunity for frozen St George's mushrooms suggests either limited institutional demand for this specialty item or potential bundling within broader frozen-vegetable line items that go untagged to this specific code.
