UNSPSC 50451922: Frozen organic sugar beets

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

UNSPSC 50451922 Frozen organic sugar beets, a Commodity code, captures state and local procurement of shelf-stable and prepared food products for institutional meal programs, senior services, and school nutrition—though recent solicitations show minimal activity specifically targeting frozen organic sugar beets and instead reflect broader food-supply contracting across vegetables, proteins, dairy, and prepared items. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code span county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), state departments (State of Georgia), and school districts (Early County Board of Education), with school districts and county services departments emerging as the primary buyers. The scope of work encompasses food service supply agreements for National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program support, senior nutrition programs, and institutional food service operations, with contracts typically requiring line-by-line bidding, domestic sourcing preferences where applicable, HACCP compliance, food safety documentation (including milk bacteria count and fat verification), recall procedures, and delivery on fixed schedules with temperature and quality controls.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia. Gwinnett County issued an informal written quote (IWQ) on October 13, 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, canned vegetables) with quotes due October 19, 2026 and delivery by December 7, 2026 to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center. Early County Board of Education posted a line-by-line food bid on May 11, 2026 for approximately 300+ food items and 60+ non-food supplies supporting school meal programs, with bids due June 8, 2026 and a contract period of July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, emphasizing whole-grain compliance, low-sodium formulations, domestic sourcing, and piggybacking rights for other districts. The State of Georgia issued a statewide food, supplies, and kitchen products bid on May 15, 2026 with a June 22, 2026 deadline; the full scope was contained in an attached document. The code shows recent activity but limited evidence of procurement specifically targeting frozen organic sugar beets as a standalone line item.
