UNSPSC 50453260: Frozen organic spring snow corn

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

UNSPSC 50453260 Frozen organic spring snow corn, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual purchasing activity state and local governments conduct under this classification. Recent solicitations tagged to this code overwhelmingly seek staple and specialty food products for school nutrition programs and state food service operations—including fresh and frozen produce, dairy, grains, proteins, prepared meals, condiments, and non-food kitchen supplies—rather than frozen organic corn specifically. The issuing bodies are almost entirely school districts and state agencies procuring for child nutrition services under USDA National School Lunch and School Breakfast Program frameworks. School districts dominate the recent opportunities, with repeat activity from the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Douglas County School System, Rockwood R-VI School District, and Dallas Independent School District, alongside state procurement from Georgia. The work is structured as annual or multi-year food service contracts awarded on a line-item or lot basis to responsive vendors meeting HACCP certification, food safety, Buy American, E-Verify, and liability insurance requirements—typically $1 million general liability minimum per occurrence.

Recent activity is concentrated in Georgia and Missouri school districts, with secondary activity in Texas. Representative opportunities include the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 cooperating districts (estimated $4.4 million Area One, $1.1 million Area Two, proposals due March 4, 2026); the Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid for the National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs across three schools (due June 8, 2026, IFB with emphasis on domestic sourcing, whole grains, and low-sodium formulations); the City Schools of Decatur's IFB for frozen foods and grocery items to ten school sites (sealed bids due May 15, 2026, pre-bid conference April 29, 2026); and the State of Georgia's IFB for fresh produce IFB #4 2027-2026 (due May 27, 2026). Contracts typically run July 1 through June 30 with renewal options of two to four additional one-year terms, require firm pricing or pricing adjustments tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service and Consumer Price Index documentation, impose delivery windows of 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. weekdays, and exclude federal excise tax and state sales tax from all bids. No budget ceiling or set-aside designations are consistently disclosed across these solicitations.
