UNSPSC 50446817: Frozen chaoyotes

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

UNSPSC 50446817 Frozen chaoyotes is a Commodity code that does not reflect what state and local governments are actually purchasing under this classification. Recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code request frozen vegetables broadly—frozen corn, frozen assorted vegetables, frozen carrots, frozen potatoes, and frozen mixed vegetables—as food service inputs for institutional feeding programs, not the specific chayote product the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies are correctional facilities (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Montgomery County Correctional Facility in Pennsylvania), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Bulloch County Board of Education in Georgia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, City Schools of Decatur in Georgia, Early County Board of Education in Georgia, Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Dallas Independent School District in Texas, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission for state supported living centers and hospitals), and municipalities (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut for school nutrition). Oregon Department of Corrections and school districts across Georgia, Texas, and the broader Southeast dominate recent activity. Representative procurements include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for approximately 40,000 pounds of frozen sweet kernel corn due July 24, 2026, priced at $0.498 per pound from a prior award; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumable products for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide with a maximum potential value of $4,500,000 over three years; Dallas Independent School District's RFP for various food products not available through main commodity food bids due April 2, 2026; Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB for Master Grocery K-12 covering 45 elementary, middle, and high schools due April 27, 2026; and multiple Georgia school districts issuing annual food bids through May and June 2026 for July 2026–June 2027 contract terms.
