UNSPSC 50446864: Frozen water chestnuts

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

UNSPSC 50446864 Frozen water chestnuts (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific frozen vegetable product—does not align with the state and local opportunities recently tagged to it. Of the twenty-three solicitations in the recent-opportunities block, none explicitly request frozen water chestnuts. Instead, the tagged opportunities span broad frozen and fresh produce procurement, grocery supply for correctional facilities and school nutrition programs, and multi-category food service contracts. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source data or that frozen water chestnuts are bundled into larger produce or grocery line-item bids without discrete visibility.

The opportunities that do appear under this code represent substantial, recurring procurement across state departments, county correctional facilities, school districts, and cooperative purchasing consortiums. Oregon Department of Corrections has posted multiple ITBs for frozen vegetables (carrots, corn, assorted blends, and specialty varieties) in recent months, as have Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and multiple Georgia school districts. The geographic spread spans Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Virginia, Connecticut, Illinois, and New Jersey. These are predominantly ITB and IFB notices with response dates between late February and mid-July 2026. Pricing in recent ODOC frozen vegetable solicitations ranges from approximately $0.40 to $0.69 per pound depending on variety and package size. If your firm supplies frozen vegetables as a commodity input or operates as a food service distributor, the code's tagged opportunities may prove useful for tracking overall frozen-produce demand; direct pursuit of this specific code for water chestnuts alone is not supported by current posting activity.
