UNSPSC 50446807: Frozen arum

The type of vegetable known as arum that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50446807 Frozen arum, a Commodity code, does not correspond to the recent state and local procurement activity in the source records. The code's nominal scope—frozen arum, a starchy tuber—appears in zero recent solicitations. Instead, the dataset shows extensive activity in frozen vegetables broadly (carrots, corn, mixed vegetables, assorted blends) and frozen food products for institutional and school food service, but no procurement activity specifically for frozen arum. State and local buyers active in this space—the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, school districts across Georgia, Missouri, Texas, Virginia, and Pennsylvania, and county correctional facilities—are purchasing frozen commodity vegetables, fresh produce, and comprehensive grocery and food service supplies, not the narrowly specified arum product.

The mismatch between the code's scope and actual recent purchasing suggests either an indexing error in the source data or that frozen arum procurement does not occur in state and local contracting at detectable scale. Vendors pursuing institutional food service contracts in this market should focus on broader frozen-vegetable and frozen-food commodity codes rather than this code.
