UNSPSC 50453266: Frozen organic telstar corn

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

UNSPSC 50453266 Frozen organic telstar corn is a Commodity code that describes specialty frozen corn products; however, the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show no direct purchasing activity for frozen organic telstar corn specifically. Instead, the solicitations posted under this code reflect broad school nutrition and institutional food procurement, where frozen corn appears only as an incidental item within much larger food service contracts that encompass produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and related supplies for school breakfast and lunch programs. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and state education agencies—including Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, and Dallas Independent School District—along with occasional state-level food procurement from the State of Georgia for general institutional operations. These districts solicit food through IFBs and RFPs on an annual or biennial cycle to support their National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program, and child nutrition services, with awards made on line-item or lot bases to single or multiple vendors based on lowest responsive bid and compliance with product specifications.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Missouri, with secondary activity in Texas. Representative recent solicitations include Early County Board of Education's RFP (PE55045NONST2027000000006) due June 8, 2026, seeking line-by-line bids for 300+ food items and 60 non-food supplies; City Schools of Decatur's IFB (PE77310NONST2026000000018) for frozen foods and grocery items due May 15, 2026, to ten school sites; Douglas County School System's RFP (PE64810NONST2026000000047) for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative due March 4, 2026, covering 30 districts with estimated spending of approximately $4.4 million to $1.1 million by area; and Dallas Independent School District's RFP (JC250079) for various food products due April 2, 2026, targeting non-commodity supplemental items. None of these opportunities explicitly request frozen organic telstar corn as a line item, suggesting this code may be a tagging mismatch or that the specialty product is not actively procured through recent state and local solicitations at a meaningful volume.
