UNSPSC 50453508: Frozen organic indian eggplants

The variety of organic eggplants known as organic indian eggplants that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50453508 Frozen organic Indian eggplants is a Commodity code that nominally describes a single perishable produce item, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code do not reflect procurement of frozen organic eggplants specifically. Instead, the opportunities show school districts and state agencies procuring broad food-service portfolios—fresh produce, frozen foods, dairy, meats, grains, and ancillary supplies—to support National School Lunch Programs, School Breakfast Programs, and general school nutrition operations. The code's recent activity reflects a mismatch between its nominal scope and the actual procurement work being solicited under it; vendors responding to opportunities tagged 50453508 should verify the detailed scope in each RFP or IFB attachment rather than rely on the code name alone.

State school districts dominate the issuing bodies, with individual districts (Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Dallas Independent School District, Rockwood R-VI School District) and cooperative purchasing vehicles (the GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia districts) posting line-item food bids with annual quantities, delivery schedules, quality specifications, and firm pricing requirements. The State of Georgia has also solicited general food supplies and fresh produce through separate RFP and IFB notices. Recent opportunities cluster in Georgia and Missouri, with secondary activity in Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid (due June 8, 2026) covering 300+ food items with domestic sourcing preferences and $500,000 liability insurance requirements; the City Schools of Decatur's IFB for frozen foods and grocery items (due May 15, 2026) with $1,000,000 general liability per occurrence; the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's fresh produce procurement (due April 23, 2026) covering 72 items across 60 school sites; and the Douglas County School System's cooperative RFP for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 to $1.1 million by geographic area (due March 4, 2026). All school district solicitations emphasize HACCP compliance, Buy American provisions, E-Verify authorization, and firm pricing with quarterly or semi-annual adjustment windows tied to verified market indices or USDA pricing data.
