UNSPSC 50446861: Frozen tindora

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

UNSPSC 50446861 Frozen tindora (Commodity) shows no recent relevant state and local procurement activity. The code represents a narrow, specialized frozen vegetable product — the tindora or ivy gourd — yet none of the recent opportunities tied to this code actually solicit tindora; instead, they tag general frozen vegetable buys (frozen corn, frozen potatoes, frozen carrots, frozen assorted blends) under broader commodity codes or under the solicitations' primary UNSPSC assignments. The mismatch suggests either historical tagging drift or system classification inconsistency within issuing agencies' procurement platforms.

State and local buyers purchasing frozen vegetables — primarily departments of corrections, school districts, and state supported living centers — do solicit frozen commodity items routinely across Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Illinois, Missouri, and New Jersey. Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC), Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ), Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC), and multiple school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, City Schools of Decatur, Bulloch County Board of Education, and others) have posted ITBs and IFBs for frozen carrots, frozen corn, frozen potatoes, frozen assorted vegetable blends, and supplemental food products in quantities ranging from 40,000 to 400,000 pounds per solicitation, with response deadlines between April and July 2026. None of these solicitations, however, specify tindora as a line item or acceptable product variant; they call for commodity-standard frozen vegetables (carrots, corn, potatoes, mixed blends, green beans, broccoli, cauliflower, peas, stir fry). Absent recent evidence that state and local procurement offices are actively specifying tindora as a procurement category, this code should be considered inactive for practical business development purposes at this time.
