UNSPSC 50451803: Frozen organic azuki beans

The variety of organic beans known as organic azuki beans that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50451803 Frozen organic azuki beans is a Commodity code that nominally names a single frozen legume product, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show no solicitations for frozen azuki beans specifically. Instead, the code appears to have been applied to a broad range of food service procurement activity spanning fresh produce, frozen foods, grocery staples, eggs, and comprehensive food-service distribution contracts. School districts and state agencies are the primary issuing bodies, with Georgia and Texas jurisdictions dominating the recent activity. The scope of work under the code in practice encompasses school nutrition program procurement—fresh produce contracts, frozen food and grocery item bids, comprehensive food-distribution agreements, and commodity-based supply arrangements that support National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program operations across multiple school sites. Vendors must meet strict food-safety compliance (HACCP plans, food recall procedures, temperature control), deliver to designated school locations on fixed schedules, maintain specified insurance coverage, and comply with Buy American provisions and E-Verify requirements.

The issuing-body mix includes school districts (Early County Board of Education in Georgia, City Schools of Decatur in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Dallas Independent School District in Texas, and Douglas County School System in Georgia) and state procurement offices (State of Georgia). Georgia school districts account for the majority of recent postings. Representative opportunities include the Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid (RFP, due June 8, 2026) for approximately 300 food items and 60 non-food and paper supplies across three schools with an estimated contract period of July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027; Rockwood R-VI School District's grocery items procurement (electronic IFB via NUTRIKIDS, due April 29, 2026) for over 900 line items across multiple categories serving approximately 6,900 daily lunch and 900 breakfast participants; and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs (due March 4, 2026) serving 30 Georgia school districts with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and includes activity in Missouri and Texas.
