UNSPSC 50451916: Frozen organic formanova beets

The variety of organic beets known as organic formanova beets that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50451916 Frozen organic formanova beets is a Commodity code that identifies a narrow product category within state and local procurement, yet the recent solicitation activity shows no direct purchasing of frozen organic formanova beets specifically. Instead, school districts and state agencies are procuring broad food service categories—fresh produce, frozen foods, grocery staples, dairy, and proteins—through RFPs and IFBs where frozen specialty vegetables like organic formanova beets would appear as line items within larger commodity groups rather than standalone solicitations. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under related frozen-vegetable and organic-produce scopes are primarily school nutrition programs (Early County Schools, City Schools of Decatur, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Dallas Independent School District), state agencies (Georgia state procurement), and cooperative buying vehicles (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts). The Douglas County School System appears twice as a repeat buyer through two major food service RFPs issued in January and February 2026.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Missouri, with Dallas, Texas representing secondary geographic presence. Representative recent opportunities include the Early County Board of Education's FY27 Food Bid (RFP, due June 8, 2026) requesting line-by-line bids for approximately 300 food items across meats, poultry, dairy, vegetables, fruits, grains, and condiments for delivery to three schools; City Schools of Decatur's IFB for Frozen Foods and Grocery (due May 15, 2026) covering frozen and grocery items meeting whole-grain and low-sodium specifications for ten school sites; and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative (due March 4, 2026) for fresh produce and eggs across two geographic areas serving 30 districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two. None of these solicitations isolates frozen organic formanova beets as a line item or focus, suggesting the code has minimal recent standalone activity in state and local procurement.
