UNSPSC 50452504: Frozen organic chantenay carrots

The variety of organic carrots known as organic chantenay carrots that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50452504 Frozen organic chantenay carrots is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure shelf-stable and fresh food products for institutional feeding programs, senior services, and school meal operations. Recent solicitations show that state and local buyers under this code are actually purchasing broad categories of food and kitchen supplies — including fresh and frozen vegetables, proteins, dairy, grains, condiments, and non-food service supplies — rather than frozen carrots in isolation. The issuing bodies span county purchasing offices, state food-service procurement agencies, and school district food-service operations seeking to fill annual or multi-year supply contracts for National School Lunch Program participation, senior congregate meal programs, and general institutional cafeteria operations. Award decisions turn on unit-price comparison, domestic-sourcing preferences where stated, compliance with USDA nutrition and labeling standards, delivery logistics and temperature control for perishables, and vendor capacity to supply line-by-line or bundled food baskets across multiple SKUs.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia. The State of Georgia issued a broad food, supplies, and other kitchen products IFB with a June 22, 2026 response date (PE55645NONST2026000000009). Early County Board of Education sought line-by-line food bids for school lunch and breakfast programs with a June 8, 2026 deadline (PE55045NONST2027000000006), emphasizing domestic sourcing, whole-grain specifications, and low-sodium formulations across 300+ food items and 60 non-food supplies, with contract award approximately 60 days post-opening and a July 1, 2026 start date running through June 30, 2027. Most recently, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an informal written quote (IWQ) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for the Department of Community Services with quotes due October 19, 2026 (PE77023NONST2027000000782), covering 35 line items of canned vegetables, proteins, grains, and sauces with F.O.B. destination delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center and all items required by December 7, 2026. School districts and county social-services operations appear to be the primary repeat buyers under this code.
