UNSPSC 50446865: Frozen yampi

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

UNSPSC 50446865 Frozen yampi (Commodity) describes a narrow food ingredient category, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show minimal direct alignment with the nominal commodity. The Oregon Department of Corrections, the primary issuer in the dataset, has solicited frozen corn, frozen potato products, and frozen assorted vegetables under ITB notices in July 2026, while frozen-vegetable procurement also appears in Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia school districts, New Jersey Department of Human Services, and Pennsylvania county facilities' solicitations spanning February through July 2026. The mismatch between the code name and actual buy suggests that state and local procurement offices are tagging broad frozen-vegetable and frozen-produce categories under this commodity code as a classification convenience rather than as a true yampis procurement. School nutrition programs, state correctional facilities, and institutional food service operations dominate the issuing-body mix, with Oregon DOC, Texas HHSC, and multiple Georgia school districts appearing as repeat buyers.

Recent activity concentrates in Oregon, Texas, and Georgia, with secondary volume in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Connecticut, and Missouri. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued five frozen-vegetable ITBs in June and July 2026—Solicitation S2910000017451 for 40,000 pounds of frozen corn at $0.498 per pound (ITB, due July 24, 2026), Solicitation S2910000017439 for 120,000 pounds of frozen potato products at $0.3811 per pound (ITB, due July 24, 2026)—establishing firm pricing and volume benchmarks for competitive positioning. Texas HHSC's Solicitation HHS0017449 (IFB, due July 11, 2026) procures food and consumable products for El Paso State Supported Living Center at approximately $1.5 million annually, while multiple Georgia school districts—including Bulloch County (IFB #043025, due May 4, 2026), Burke County (sealed bids due June 5, 2026), and Early County (due June 8, 2026)—solicit comprehensive grocery and frozen-vegetable bundles under annual school-nutrition contracts with Buy American compliance and HACCP plan requirements. The code shows active, recurring procurement volume in institutional and school nutrition contexts, though the disconnect between nominal commodity definition and actual buying patterns suggests caution in pursuing opportunities tagged under this code without confirming frozen-vegetable or frozen-produce fit in the formal solicitation documents.
