UNSPSC 50454507: Frozen organic split yellow lentils

The variety of organic lentils known as organic split yellow lentils that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50454507 Frozen organic split yellow lentils is a Commodity code that covers shelf-stable legume products procured by state and local governments, primarily for food-service and nutrition-support programs. State and local buyers under this code include county departments of community services, state-level food-procurement offices, and school districts operating national school lunch and breakfast programs. Recent solicitations frame the work in concrete terms: ingredient-level procurement for institutional meal programs serving seniors, school populations, and food-assistance clients, where lentils and similar legumes appear as line items within broader food-supply contracts alongside proteins, grains, canned vegetables, and condiments. The code sees activity from county purchasing offices, state procurement authorities, and independent school districts.

Georgia dominates the recent activity in this code, with three posted opportunities between May and October 2026. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted an IWQ requesting informal written quotes (due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for the Department of Community Services, with delivery required to Lawrenceville by December 7, 2026 and F.O.B. destination terms. The State of Georgia issued a bid solicitation on May 15, 2026 (due June 22, 2026) for food, supplies, and other kitchen products with detailed scope in an attached document. Early County Board of Education posted a line-by-line bid for food and non-food products (due June 8, 2026) supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program across three schools, with contract period July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, emphasis on domestic sourcing and whole-grain options, and provisions for price adjustments based on USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index data. Award in school and county procurements flows to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with school districts reserving the right to allow piggybacking by other districts on identical terms.
