UNSPSC 50453511: Frozen organic long purple eggplants

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

UNSPSC 50453511 Frozen organic long purple eggplants is a Commodity code that nominally describes a single fresh or processed produce item, but recent state and local opportunities do not isolate procurement of frozen organic eggplants as a line item. Instead, school districts and state agencies solicit frozen eggplants as part of broad food service and school nutrition procurements encompassing hundreds of produce, protein, dairy, and grocery line items. The code's scope in actual purchasing extends across child nutrition services for public schools, state food operations, and institutional food service, where frozen eggplants—when specified—appear alongside fresh produce, proteins, grains, dairy, and prepared foods delivered to school sites, warehouses, or central kitchens. State and local issuing bodies include school districts (most frequent), county school systems, city school systems, and state procurement offices. School nutrition programs dominate the recent opportunity mix, with districts seeking produce and food items to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia and Missouri. The Douglas County School System (Georgia) issued an RFP for fresh produce and eggs across two geographic areas serving 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two, due March 4, 2026; the State of Georgia issued an IFB for fresh produce due May 27, 2026. The City Schools of Decatur (Georgia) solicited frozen foods and grocery items for its School Nutrition Program by IFB due May 15, 2026. The Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia) bid an annual fresh-produce contract covering 72 produce items due April 23, 2026. The Rockwood R-VI School District (St. Louis County, Missouri) solicited grocery items encompassing over 900 line items due April 29, 2026. The Early County Board of Education (Georgia) requested line-by-line food bids for the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs due June 8, 2026. Dallas Independent School District (Texas) issued an RFP for various food products due April 2, 2026. Frozen organic eggplants do not appear as a named line item in any recent solicitation summary; the code shows minimal specific activity and likely serves as a catch-all category within broader food service aggregations.
