UNSPSC 50453207: Frozen organic biqueen corn

The variety of organic corn known as organic biqueen corn that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50453207 Frozen organic biqueen corn is a Commodity code representing specific frozen vegetable products that state and local governments purchase primarily through school nutrition programs and institutional food service operations. Recent solicitations show that the code sits within a broader ecosystem of frozen and fresh produce procurement, though opportunities tagged specifically to frozen organic corn are sparse. The work actually being solicited under this code encompasses frozen vegetable supply for child nutrition services and school lunch programs, with vendors expected to meet USDA compliance, food safety standards including HACCP plans, and delivery scheduling windows tied to school operations. Issuing bodies include school districts of varying sizes, from small county systems to large urban districts, as well as state procurement offices managing food service across multiple facilities. School districts dominate the recent activity—Early County Board of Education, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Dallas Independent School District, and the Douglas County School System in Georgia all issued solicitations in the first half of 2026 for broader food and produce categories that would encompass frozen vegetables.

The geographic spread of recent activity centers heavily on Georgia and Missouri, with additional activity in Texas. Douglas County School System issued two major RFPs in January and February 2026—one for fresh produce and eggs ($4.4 million Area One, $1.1 million Area Two) and another for food supply and distribution services ($9 million annually)—both open to multiple vendors through the GEC Buying Cooperative. Early County Board of Education in Georgia issued an IFB due June 8, 2026, for line-by-line food and non-food bids spanning 300+ items with contract performance July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The City Schools of Decatur (Georgia) issued an IFB for frozen foods and grocery items due May 15, 2026, with ten delivery locations and a July 1, 2026 start date. Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri solicited grocery items (900+ line items, due April 29, 2026) with electronic bidding through NUTRIKIDS. Dallas ISD issued an RFP in February 2026 for various food products (due April 2, 2026) covering the 2026-2027 school year. These contracts typically require firm pricing for the full contract term, compliance with Buy American provisions, $1 million general liability insurance, E-Verify authorization, HACCP certification, and delivery to multiple school sites with temperature and timing specifications; few carry specific set-asides, though some districts emphasize opportunities for small businesses and minority-owned vendors.
