UNSPSC 50452701: Frozen organic celebrity celery

The variety of organic celery known as organic celebrity celery that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50452701 Frozen organic celebrity celery, Commodity tier, does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity posted under this code. The available opportunities show no solicitations for frozen organic celery or any specialty frozen produce items; instead, the eight recent postings from February through June 2026 document school nutrition programs and state agencies procuring broad-based food service contracts encompassing fresh and frozen produce, eggs, dairy, proteins, grains, snacks, grocery staples, spices, and ice cream through RFPs, RFQs, and IFBs. The disconnect between the code's nominal scope and actual recent demand suggests either a classification error in the state and local procurement system or minimal market activity in frozen organic celery specifically under this Commodity code.

State and local buyers pursuing food service contracts in Georgia, Missouri, and Texas dominate the recent activity. The Douglas County School System (Georgia) has issued two major RFPs totaling approximately $13 million in estimated annual spending for fresh produce, eggs, and main-line food distribution serving 30+ districts and 25,500+ students; the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Dallas Independent School District, Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), and the State of Georgia have all posted IFBs and RFPs for food and produce procurement since February 2026. Representative opportunities include the Douglas County School System RFP SN26-003 for Food Supply and Distribution Services (due February 18, 2026, approximately $9 million annual spend), the Early County Board of Education line-by-line food bid (due June 8, 2026, serving three schools under the National School Lunch Program), and the Dallas Independent School District RFP for various food products (due April 2, 2026, contract May 29, 2026 through May 28, 2027). Most contracts run July 1 through June 30 and include renewal options; all require Buy American compliance, HACCP plans, liability insurance ranging from $500,000 to $2 million, and E-Verify authorization. Geographic concentration remains in Georgia and Texas school districts, with one Missouri procurement and state-level Georgia food supply activity.
