UNSPSC 50454103: Frozen organic borage

The variety of organic herbs known as organic borage that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50454103 Frozen organic borage, a Commodity code, does not match the work actually being solicited under this code in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged to this code request bids for broad food service groceries — including proteins, dairy, frozen vegetables, canned goods, condiments, and disposable serviceware — supplied to state institutions, county senior services, and correctional facilities. None of the recent solicitations specifically reference organic borage or borage products of any kind. The code shows no relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope, and the mismatch between the code designation and the actual procurements suggests potential miscoding rather than active buying patterns for frozen organic borage at the state and local level.

The issuing bodies across the recent opportunities span state health and human services commissions (Texas HHSC and Department of State Health Services), state correctional departments (Texas TDCJ), county commissioners (Gwinnett County, Georgia), state procurement divisions (Georgia and Illinois), and state-supported living centers. The geographic spread includes Texas, Georgia, and Illinois, with Texas showing the heaviest recent activity through multiple HHSC and TDCJ food service procurements. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017798 for canteen groceries at Mexia State Supported Living Center (due August 25, 2026), the Texas Comptroller's IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five TDCJ warehouse regions (due May 4, 2026, extended via addendum), and Gwinnett County's informal written quote IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services (due October 19, 2026). The Texas HHSC supplemental food procurement HHS0016792v2 carried a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years. Food service buying at this tier is steady across institutional buyers but remains unrelated to the specific commodity this code names.
