UNSPSC 50446423: Frozen tiny tim tomatoes

The variety of tomatoes known as tiny tim tomatoes that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50446423 Frozen tiny tim tomatoes, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product line that state and local governments procure primarily through food-service contracts for institutional feeding programs at correctional facilities, state-supported living centers, schools, and senior services. Recent opportunities show frozen vegetables—including tomatoes, corn, mixed assortments, and potato products—bundled within broader food procurement vehicles rather than as standalone line items; the code itself does not appear as a discrete solicitation focus in the recent activity, but frozen tomatoes are included as components of comprehensive frozen-food packages. Issuing bodies soliciting under this family span state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Human Services, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), county governments (Gwinnett County, Montgomery County), school districts (Bridgeport Board of Education, Burke County, Early County, Ben Hill County), and specialized state agencies. Repeat buyers include HHSC (multiple FY-27 procurements), Oregon Department of Corrections (multiple frozen-vegetable ITBs), and TDCJ (cafeteria food products). Texas, Oregon, Georgia, and Illinois dominate recent activity, with scattered procurement across Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and New Jersey.

Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' July 2026 ITB S2910000017692 for 360,000 pounds of assorted frozen vegetables (broccoli, vegetable blends, corn, green beans) due August 20, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. PST, with FOB destination delivery to Salem and Oregon resident/fabrication preferences of 10 percent combined; the Texas HHSC's July 2026 IFB HHS0017338 for frozen food products (106 line items including frozen vegetables) to state hospitals and living centers statewide, with bids due August 18, 2026 and estimated annual volume of approximately $9 million; and Gwinnett County's October 2026 IWQ for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (including canned vegetables) due October 19, 2026 at 3:00 p.m., with delivery to the Senior Services Center in Lawrenceville. Food procurement at this tier typically requires FOB destination delivery, temperature control (0°F or lower for frozen goods), USDA/FDA compliance, detailed packaging and shelf-life specifications, liability insurance minimums of $500,000 to $1,000,000, and responsiveness to institutional meal-planning cycles spanning academic years (July–June), fiscal years (September–August), or quarterly ordering windows.
