UNSPSC 50454800: Frozen organic mushrooms

The type of organic vegetable known as organic mushrooms that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50454800 Frozen organic mushrooms is a Class code, but state and local procurement activity under this code shows little relevant recent solicitation activity. The eight most-recent opportunities in the source block span fresh produce, eggs, general grocery items, frozen foods, spices, and ice cream — none of which specifically target frozen organic mushrooms or narrow produce categories such as mushrooms. State and local governments buying under procurement codes tagged 50454800 are primarily school districts and state departments, and the solicitations emphasize fresh produce staples, eggs, processed single-serve items, and comprehensive grocery assortments rather than specialty frozen mushroom products. The work being solicited includes line-by-line or line-item food service bidding for school nutrition programs, with emphasis on USDA compliance, HACCP certification, food safety protocols, Buy American sourcing, and delivery to multiple school sites or central warehouses within tight temperature and timing windows — characteristics typical of commodity food procurement rather than specialty frozen-vegetable sourcing.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, including the Early County Board of Education (Georgia), City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia), alongside state procurement offices and Dallas Independent School District (Texas). Recent opportunities cluster heavily in Georgia and Missouri, with activity also in Texas. Representative recent solicitations include the Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid (due June 8, 2026, RFP) covering 300+ food items with estimated annual spending across meats, dairy, vegetables, fruits, and grains; the Rockwood R-VI School District's IFB for 900+ grocery-line items (due April 29, 2026, electronic submission) including produce, dairy, snacks, and prepared entrees; the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's annual fresh-produce contract (due April 23, 2026, IFB) encompassing 72 produce items for 60 school sites with estimated annual quantities reaching 21,125 cases for individual items; and the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs through a cooperative-purchasing vehicle (due March 4, 2026, RFP) with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million to $1.1 million across two geographic areas serving 30 school districts. The code shows no current market for frozen organic mushrooms as a standalone procurement category.
