UNSPSC 50453014: Frozen organic shantung cabbage

The variety of organic chinese cabbage known as organic shantung that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50453014 Frozen organic shantung cabbage is a Commodity code that designates a specific frozen vegetable product. State and local procurement activity under this code shows no recent solicitations for frozen organic shantung cabbage specifically. The recent opportunities tagged to this code address broad food procurement for school nutrition programs and state operations—including fresh produce, grocery items, eggs, and comprehensive food supply contracts—rather than this particular frozen cabbage variety. School districts and state agencies are soliciting food products across multiple categories through RFPs, RFQs, and IFBs, but the actual recent activity does not target frozen organic shantung cabbage as a line item or named product.

The issuing bodies in the opportunities block include multiple Georgia school districts (Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), the State of Georgia purchasing office, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, and Dallas Independent School District in Texas. Geographic activity spans Georgia, Missouri, and Texas, with the heaviest recent concentration in Georgia school districts. Representative recent solicitations include Early County Board of Education's FY27 food bid (RFP, due June 8, 2026) encompassing 300+ food items and 60 non-food products for the National School Lunch Program, and the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs (due March 4, 2026) covering 72 line items across 30 districts with estimated annual spending of approximately $5.5 million. This code appears to have been misapplied to general food procurement; businesses targeting school nutrition or state food service opportunities should focus on broader produce, grocery, and food distribution codes rather than this narrow frozen cabbage designation.
