UNSPSC 50453248: Frozen organic precocious corn

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

UNSPSC 50453248 Frozen organic precocious corn is a Commodity code that in practice covers shelf-stable and frozen food products sourced by state and local jurisdictions for institutional food service — including school meal programs, senior services, and general public procurement. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show demand for bulk food items spanning shelf-stable proteins, grains, produce, dairy, and specialty products, often with accompanying non-food kitchen supplies and janitorial items. Issuing bodies include county governments, state agencies, and school districts; repeat buyers include county departments of community services and boards of education managing federally funded meal programs. Specifications commonly emphasize Buy American compliance, domestic sourcing preferences, USDA nutrition standards, whole-grain and low-sodium formulations, food recall and biosecurity protocols, and HACCP documentation.

Georgia dominates recent activity. The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted an informal written quote (IWQ) on October 13, 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, and canned vegetables) with quotes due October 19, 2026, delivery to Lawrenceville, and final receipt required by December 7, 2026; the State of Georgia posted a statewide food bid on May 15, 2026 with a June 22, 2026 due date covering food, supplies, and kitchen products with full scope in the attached solicitation document; and the Early County Board of Education posted an FY27 food bid on May 11, 2026 with a June 8, 2026 deadline for 300+ food items plus non-food supplies to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, emphasizing domestic sourcing, whole-grain bread, multiple milk formulations, and compliance with USDA 2024 Final Rule specifications, with firm pricing for 15 days post-award and escalation requests considered on six-month intervals. Award determinations in these solicitations favor lowest responsive and responsible bidders based on unit-of-measure pricing, and contracts typically require debarment verification, E-Verify compliance, $500,000 general liability insurance, and allow piggybacking by other school districts.
