UNSPSC 50453240: Frozen organic merlin corn

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

UNSPSC 50453240 Frozen organic merlin corn, a Commodity code, captures shelf-stable and frozen produce items that state and local food-service programs purchase for senior services, institutional nutrition programs, and school meal plans. Recent solicitations show that the code encompasses canned vegetables, frozen produce, and related shelf-stable proteins and starches bundled into broader food-supply contracts rather than frozen corn alone. Issuing bodies include county governments, state purchasing departments, and school districts; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners and Early County Board of Education are active recent buyers in Georgia, seeking compliance with USDA nutrition standards, domestic sourcing preferences, and food-safety documentation including HACCP plans and recall procedures.

Georgia dominates recent activity under this code. Gwinnett County posted an IWQ for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items (RFQ, due October 19, 2026) for the Department of Community Services, requiring F.O.B. Destination delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center with 72-hour delivery windows and a December 7, 2026 final receipt deadline. Early County Board of Education issued a line-by-line food bid (IFB, due June 8, 2026) covering 300+ food items plus non-food supplies for National School Lunch and Breakfast programs across three schools, with firm pricing for 15 days from award and escalation requests thereafter permitted on a six-month basis supported by USDA or CPI data. The State of Georgia also posted a broader food, supplies, and other kitchen products solicitation (IFB, due June 22, 2026) with full scope details in an attached PDF.
