UNSPSC 50446830: Frozen ginger root

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

UNSPSC 50446830 Frozen ginger root is a Commodity code with no recent state and local procurement activity matching the code's specified product scope. The twenty most recent state and local opportunities posted under or near this code instead reflect widespread demand for broad frozen vegetable assortments, fresh produce, grocery staples, and food service products to support correctional facilities, school districts, state health agencies, and county governments across the country. The solicitations under adjacent frozen-vegetable codes (such as UNSPSC 50446821 Frozen carrots and UNSPSC 50446850 Frozen mixed vegetables) name specific products—frozen corn, frozen potatoes, frozen assorted blends, frozen carrots—but frozen ginger root does not appear in any of the posted opportunities. State and local food service procurement follows narrow, commodity-specific bidding: when a jurisdiction needs frozen ginger, it posts a discrete ITB; the opportunities shown here reflect instead the dominant frozen-food categories actually being purchased today—commodity vegetables, prepared entrees, and staple proteins for mass institutional feeding.

The active buyers are Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, school districts across Georgia, Illinois, Missouri, Connecticut, Texas, and Virginia, Montgomery County and other county facilities in Pennsylvania, and municipal school systems nationwide. These entities post ITBs, RFPs, and RFQs on rolling schedules aligned to fiscal years and menu cycles, with response dates typically sixty to ninety days after posting. Oregon ODOC has posted multiple frozen-vegetable solicitations since February 2026 (corn, potatoes, carrots, mixed assortments, green beans, broccoli, cauliflower, stir fry blend, peas) with ITB closings in late February through July 2026. Texas TDCJ and HHSC have issued related solicitations for cafeteria food products and supplemental food consumables with response windows in February through May 2026. School districts in Georgia (Savannah-Chatham, Bulloch, Early County, Burke County, Decatur City Schools), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Virginia (Fairfax County), and Texas (Dallas ISD, Ben Hill County) posted food bids in March through June 2026 with mostly firm-fixed annual contracts running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. No frozen ginger root appears in any solicitation; the code sees no current purchasing signal.
