UNSPSC 50451505: Frozen organic gros camus de bretagne artichokes

The variety of organic artichokes known as organic gros camus de bretagne artichokes that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50451505 Frozen organic gros camus de bretagne artichokes is a Commodity code nominally designating a single product line, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it do not reflect procurement of this specific item. Instead, the code appears in broad food-purchasing solicitations spanning shelf-stable products, fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and non-food kitchen supplies. State and local governments use this code to tag multi-line food tenders for school nutrition programs, senior services, and general institutional food operations. Issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), state departments (State of Georgia), and school districts (Early County Board of Education). The work solicited ranges from informal quotes for shelf-stable pantry items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups) to comprehensive line-by-line bids for National School Lunch and School Breakfast Program support encompassing meats, poultry, seafood, dairy, vegetables, fruits, grains, and paper supplies with delivery to multiple school sites or senior centers.

Recent activity centers in Georgia. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an informal written quote (IWQ) on October 13, 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of food items for the Department of Community Services, with quotes due October 19, 2026 and delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center by December 7, 2026. The State of Georgia posted a bid solicitation on May 15, 2026 for food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 due date; scope details are contained in an attached document. Early County Board of Education requested line-by-line bids on May 11, 2026 for approximately 300+ food items and 60+ non-food supplies to support school meal programs across three schools, with bids due June 8, 2026 and contract period July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The code shows little relevant recent activity beyond Georgia jurisdictions; the mismatch between the nominal commodity (frozen organic artichokes) and the actual scope of recent solicitations suggests tagging variance rather than genuine procurement specialization under this code.
