UNSPSC 50453249: Frozen organic pristine corn

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

UNSPSC 50453249 Frozen organic pristine corn, a Commodity code, does not reflect the current activity state and local governments are actually purchasing under this classification. The recent solicitations tagged to this code involve broad food service procurement for school nutrition programs, child nutrition services, and state operations—including fresh produce, frozen foods and groceries, eggs, dairy, meats, grains, and miscellaneous food products for institutional meal service. The code's narrow specification (frozen organic pristine corn) diverges sharply from what is being solicited: multi-category food buys spanning dozens or hundreds of line items, seasonal and commodity-driven sourcing, and vendor relationships scaled to serve thousands of students or state facilities daily. School districts dominate the issuing bodies, with the Early County Board of Education (Georgia), City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Dallas Independent School District (Texas) posting RFPs or IFBs for annual school nutrition contracts; state procurement offices in Georgia also appear as buyers of fresh produce and food supplies. The Douglas County School System in Georgia stands out as a repeat buyer, issuing multiple RFPs through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs and main-line food distribution services serving 30 school districts across two geographic areas.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and the South, with the State of Georgia, multiple Georgia school districts, and Douglas County School System (serving 25,500 students across 32 schools) posting the most visible opportunities. The Douglas County School System RFP for Fresh Produce and Eggs (due March 4, 2026, estimated annual spend $5.5 million across two geographic areas) and its Food Supply and Distribution Services RFP (due February 18, 2026, estimated annual expenditure $9 million) represent the largest recent opportunities; Dallas Independent School District (RFP due April 2, 2026) and Early County Board of Education (IFB due June 8, 2026) issued substantial multi-category food procurement RFPs and IFBs. City Schools of Decatur issued an IFB for frozen foods and grocery items (due May 15, 2026) with delivery to ten school sites. All contracts require firm pricing for the contract period (typically July 1 through June 30), compliance with Buy American provisions, HACCP plans, food recall procedures, and insurance minimums typically at $1 million general liability per occurrence. School districts emphasize whole-grain standards, low-sodium formulations, no artificial additives, and USDA compliance. The code shows little recent activity that is actually limited to frozen organic pristine corn alone.
