UNSPSC 50454609: Frozen organic ruby romaine lettuce

The variety of organic lettuce known as organic ruby romaine lettuce that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50454609 Frozen organic ruby romaine lettuce is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities do not reflect procurement activity specifically for this product. The source records show school districts, county school systems, and state departments soliciting broadly for food products, fresh produce, and grocery items—including lettuce and other vegetables—but none of the posted opportunities isolate frozen organic ruby romaine lettuce as a line item or specify it by variety or organic certification. The Early County Board of Education (Georgia), the City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), and the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia) all issued IFBs in spring 2026 for fresh produce and grocery items that would encompass leafy greens and vegetables, but procurement documentation confirms only vegetables, fruits, and produce categories without itemization by specific frozen organic lettuce types.

The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and school systems across Georgia, Missouri, and Texas, with additional activity from state departments in Georgia. Recent opportunities include the Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid (IFB, due June 8, 2026) covering meats, dairy, vegetables, and produce; the City Schools of Decatur's IFB for frozen foods and grocery items (due May 15, 2026); the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's fresh produce bid (72 items, due April 23, 2026); Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri's grocery items procurement (over 900 line items, due April 29, 2026); and the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs (approximately 72 line items serving 30 districts, estimated $5.5 million combined across two geographic areas, due March 4, 2026). The State of Georgia issued an IFB for fresh produce (due May 27, 2026). No recent opportunities name frozen organic ruby romaine lettuce as a distinct procurement requirement or line item. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity.
