UNSPSC 50451816: Frozen organic china yellow beans

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

UNSPSC 50451816 Frozen organic china yellow beans is a Commodity code. State and local governments soliciting under this code are actually procuring broad-based food service supplies for school nutrition programs and institutional food operations rather than frozen organic china yellow beans specifically. Recent solicitations show school districts, state agencies, and purchasing cooperatives acquiring comprehensive food product portfolios—fresh produce, frozen items, dairy, proteins, grains, and non-food kitchen supplies—through single integrated bids that encompass dozens to hundreds of line items. The Early County Board of Education solicitation (RFP, due June 8, 2026) is representative: it includes over 300 food items plus 60 non-food and paper supplies for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, with domestic sourcing preferences, whole-grain and low-sodium formulations, and HACCP compliance required. Similarly, the Rockwood R-VI School District (St. Louis County, Missouri) issued an IFB for over 900 grocery line items covering snacks, vegetables, grains, dairy, meats, and prepared entrees (due April 29, 2026, electronically via NUTRIKIDS). These procurements emphasize Buy American provisions, food safety certification, liability insurance ($500,000 to $2,000,000 general liability), E-Verify compliance, and firm pricing with limited escalation provisions tied to USDA or CPI benchmarks.

The issuing bodies are primarily school districts—Early County, Rockwood R-VI, City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Dallas Independent School District—supplemented by state procurement offices (Georgia) and regional purchasing cooperatives (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia districts). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Missouri, with secondary activity in Texas. The Douglas County School System RFP (due March 4, 2026) for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC cooperative spans 30 districts across two areas with estimated spending of approximately $4.4 million (Area One) and $1.1 million (Area Two). The same district's food supply and distribution RFP (due February 18, 2026) specified approximately $9,000,000 annual expenditure across 32 schools serving approximately 25,500 students. Contract periods run July 1 through June 30 annually with renewal options typically extending two to four additional years. Delivery windows are consistently Monday through Friday morning (6:00–7:00 a.m. to 1:00–2:00 p.m.), with temperature-controlled transportation and HACCP documentation required. No incumbent vendors are named in recent postings, and no set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly stated, though Dallas ISD encourages M/WBE participation and Decatur intends to provide maximum practicable opportunities to minority and women-owned firms.
