UNSPSC 50445702: Frozen angela rutabagas

The variety of rutabagas known as angela rutabagas that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50445702 Frozen angela rutabagas is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities in the dataset do not support purchasing of frozen rutabagas; instead, they reflect solicitation activity for frozen corn, frozen mixed vegetables, frozen assorted blends, and frozen potato products across correctional facilities, school districts, and health and human services agencies. This mismatch between the code name and actual procurement activity suggests the code shows little relevant recent market activity.

State and local governments soliciting under frozen vegetable categories are primarily Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and school districts in Georgia, Missouri, and other states. The Oregon Department of Corrections has posted multiple recent ITBs for frozen vegetables including corn (July 2026), mixed vegetables, carrots, and assorted blends, with response dates between late June and late July 2026. School nutrition programs across numerous districts solicit comprehensive food bids that include frozen vegetables as line items within broader grocery and food service contracts running from July 2026 through June 2027. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Texas Health and Human Services Commission regularly procure frozen foods for correctional and state-supported living centers statewide. Activity concentrates in Oregon, Texas, and Georgia, with additional scattered opportunities in Pennsylvania, Illinois, Missouri, Connecticut, and other jurisdictions. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB for approximately 40,000 pounds of frozen sweet corn due July 24, 2026 (S2910000017451), the City of Bridgeport Board of Education's comprehensive 1,100-line-item grocery procurement including frozen products due June 30, 2026 (BNB052266), Ben Hill County Schools' food bid encompassing fresh and frozen produce due June 15, 2026 (PE61000NONST2027000000006), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB for supplemental food and consumables including frozen specialty foods to state hospitals and supported living centers, with historical contract value of approximately $1.5 million annually (HHS0017449). Most school district solicitations award to lowest responsive and responsible bidders and permit line-item awards to multiple vendors; institutional buyers apply firm fixed pricing with limited escalation provisions tied to third-party indices such as USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index data.
