UNSPSC 50444902: Frozen garlic mustard

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

UNSPSC 50444902 Frozen garlic mustard, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The most-recent-opportunities block contains no solicitations for frozen garlic mustard specifically. Instead, the block captures frozen vegetable procurement broadly—frozen corn, frozen potato products (french fries, wedges, tater tots), frozen carrots, frozen assorted vegetables, and mixed frozen vegetables—from Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and other institutional and school food service buyers. The code's nominal scope (a single frozen vegetable product line) does not align with the composite activity in the recent record, which spans dozens of frozen commodity lines across institutional dining, school nutrition, and food distribution programs.

State and local procurement under frozen vegetables (the broader family) is active and recurring, driven primarily by correctional facilities, school districts, and state health and human services agencies across Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Virginia. Oregon Department of Corrections has posted multiple ITBs for frozen vegetables (carrots, assorted blends, mixed vegetables, corn, and potatoes) between February and July 2026, typically seeking 40,000 to 400,000 pounds per line with FOB delivery to Salem, Oregon pricing under $0.70 per pound, five to ten percent state-preference markups, and delivery within 30 to 45 days. Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Texas Health and Human Services Commission procurement spans frozen specialty entrees, proteins, and mixed vegetables at volume, with firm fixed pricing and extended contract terms (often through August 2027 or beyond). School districts including Fairfax County (Virginia), City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), Bulloch County (Georgia), and Rockwood R-VI (Missouri) solicit frozen and fresh produce annually for child nutrition programs, emphasizing whole-grain options, low-sodium formulations, HACCP compliance, and compliance with Buy American provisions. Correctional and institutional food service remains the steadiest buyer category for frozen commodity vegetables, with repeat solicitation cycles and substantial per-unit volumes that support year-round vendor relationships.
