UNSPSC 50453010: Frozen organic rosette bok choy

The variety of organic chinese cabbage known as organic rosette bok choy that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50453010 Frozen organic rosette bok choy is a Commodity code that represents specialty vegetable procurement for institutional food service, though recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code show minimal activity directly aligned with the nominal product. School districts and state agencies soliciting frozen produce and fresh vegetable supply across multiple states are pursuing broader frozen-food and produce contracts that encompass dozens to hundreds of line items per solicitation, rather than single-SKU procurement of frozen organic bok choy. State and local issuing bodies active in this space include independent school districts (Early County Board of Education, Decatur City Schools, Douglas County School System in Georgia; Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri; Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia; Dallas Independent School District in Texas), state departments (State of Georgia for general food procurement and fresh produce supply), and county school systems serving as hubs for multi-district cooperative purchasing vehicles such as the GEC Buying Cooperative. School nutrition programs dominate the buyer mix, procuring food and supplies to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program across dozens of school sites per district.

Recent representative solicitations include Early County Board of Education's FY27 Food Bid (due June 8, 2026) requesting line-by-line bids for 300+ food items including frozen and fresh vegetables and dairy for three schools under a National School Lunch Program contract; Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 (due March 4, 2026) through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two; Dallas Independent School District's RFP for various food products (due April 2, 2026) for school nutrition services delivery to a central warehouse; and City Schools of Decatur's IFB for frozen foods and grocery items (due May 15, 2026) for ten school sites. The code shows concentrated activity in Georgia (State of Georgia, Douglas County, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Early County Board of Education, Decatur City Schools) with secondary activity in Missouri (Rockwood R-VI) and Texas (Dallas ISD). Contracts typically run July 1 through June 30 annually with options to extend or renew, require firm pricing for the contract period with price adjustments tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index documentation, demand Buy American compliance and HACCP certification, and include substantial liability insurance ($500,000 to $2,000,000 general liability) and E-Verify requirements.
