UNSPSC 50446809: Frozen banana leaves

The type of vegetable known as banana leaves that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50446809 Frozen banana leaves, a Commodity code, does not align with recent state and local procurement activity under this classification. The most recently posted opportunities tagged to this code or closely related frozen-vegetable and grocery categories show substantial purchasing of frozen corn, frozen potato products, assorted frozen vegetables, and comprehensive grocery and food-service items across correctional facilities, school districts, and state agencies—but no solicitations for frozen banana leaves specifically.

State and local issuing bodies purchasing frozen vegetables and related food products include the Oregon Department of Corrections (multiple ITBs for frozen vegetables, corn, and potatoes in July 2026), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (cafeteria food products), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and living centers), school districts in Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut, and county correctional facilities. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000017451 for 40,000 pounds of frozen sweet corn (due July 24, 2026, at $0.498 per pound historical pricing), the ODOC ITB S2910000017439 for 120,000 pounds of frozen potato products (french fries and wedges, due July 24, 2026, at $0.3811 per pound historical pricing), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0016792 for supplemental food and consumables statewide including frozen specialty foods (maximum potential value $4.5 million over three years). Buying is concentrated in Oregon, Texas, and Georgia with significant activity across the Upper Midwest and Southeast; school nutrition programs and state correctional institutions are the primary end users. The code shows active procurement volume in frozen vegetable commodities and institutional food supply, but no verifiable recent demand for frozen banana leaves as a distinct line item or bid category.
