UNSPSC 50445103: Frozen clemson spineless okra

The variety of okra known as clemson spineless okra that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50445103 Frozen clemson spineless okra is a Commodity code representing a single frozen vegetable product line. State and local procurement offices are not currently soliciting frozen clemson spineless okra specifically; the code shows no recent opportunities that match its nominal scope. The most recent state and local activity tagged under food procurement codes (50445103 and related frozen vegetable and grocery classifications) centers on broad-based frozen vegetable assortments, mixed produce, and comprehensive food service contracts rather than single-item commodity purchases of specialized okra varieties. Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, multiple school districts across Georgia, Texas, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia, and county correction facilities have posted competitive procurements for frozen vegetables, but these solicit mixed assortments, bulk staples (carrots, mixed blend, corn, potatoes, green beans, broccoli, cauliflower), and comprehensive kitchen inventories—not itemized single-crop frozen okra.

The code sits in the broader frozen-vegetable and institutional food-service family, where activity is concentrated among state departments of corrections, school districts operating National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs, and health and human services agencies supplying state hospitals and supported living centers. Recent opportunities have been posted by Oregon Department of Corrections (multiple ITB awards for frozen carrots, mixed vegetables, corn, and potatoes, dues in June–July 2026), Texas Health and Human Services Commission (supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and supported living centers, $4.5 million potential value over three years), Texas Department of Criminal Justice (cafeteria food products across five geographic areas, 382 line items, IFB due May 4, 2026), and school districts in Savannah-Chatham (Georgia), Douglas County (Georgia), Early County (Georgia), Bulloch County (Georgia), Decatur (Georgia), Burke County (Georgia), Fairfax County (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI (Missouri), Dallas (Texas), Ben Hill County (Georgia), and Bridgeport (Connecticut) seeking grocery and produce contracts under Buy American and USDA meal-pattern compliance frameworks. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Oregon, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Missouri, and Connecticut. Unless your firm has established supplier relationships for specialty frozen okra or can compete on price and delivery timeline for mixed frozen-vegetable solicitations, the code warrants a watch posture rather than active pursuit; the procurement signal is strongest for broad frozen-vegetable assortments and comprehensive institutional food-service supply, not for single-item specialty crops.
