UNSPSC 50453255: Frozen organic seneca starshine corn

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

UNSPSC 50453255 Frozen organic seneca starshine corn is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to procure frozen corn products, typically as part of broader food-service purchasing for schools, senior services, and other public institutions. The work being solicited under this code centers on shelf-stable and frozen produce items supplied to support meal programs, institutional cafeterias, and food distribution services. Issuing bodies span school districts, county governments, and state agencies; the mix includes school boards running federal meal programs (National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program), county departments managing senior services and food assistance, and state procurement offices conducting centralized food sourcing. Recent solicitations show that frozen vegetables like corn are routinely bundled with proteins, grains, dairy, and other staples in line-item food bids rather than purchased as standalone commodity line items.

Recent activity centers in Georgia, with representative opportunities including the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' October 2026 informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services (due October 19, 2026), the State of Georgia's May 2026 food, supplies, and kitchen products bid (due June 22, 2026), and the Early County Board of Education's May 2026 line-by-line food bid for school meal programs (due June 8, 2026). The school district bid emphasizes domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, low-sodium formulations, and products without added sugars or artificial additives, with firm pricing valid for 15 days from award and escalation or de-escalation requests considered quarterly against USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index indices. Vendors must comply with Buy American provisions, maintain HACCP plans, carry $500,000 general liability insurance, satisfy debarment verification, and allow piggybacking by other school districts on identical terms. Delivery windows are typically narrow (6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Monday through Friday) with F.O.B. destination and inside delivery required; temperature-controlled and stock-rotation requirements apply to perishable items.
