UNSPSC 50454802: Frozen organic brown mushrooms

The variety of organic mushrooms known as organic brown mushrooms that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50454802 Frozen organic brown mushrooms is a Commodity code. State and local school districts and food service operations buy frozen produce items—fresh or processed vegetables and fruits in frozen form—under this code to support child nutrition programs, school meal service, and institutional food operations. Recent solicitations confirm that frozen vegetables, frozen fruits, and processed frozen produce items (including pre-cut vegetables and prepared components) appear across multiple school district food service bids, though frozen mushrooms specifically are typically procured as line items within broader frozen-vegetable categories rather than as standalone solicitations. The code sits within the broader landscape of state and local food procurement: school districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with secondary solicitation activity from county school systems and state-level food-service operations. Early County Board of Education, Rockwood R-VI School District, City Schools of Decatur, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Dallas Independent School District, and Douglas County School System all issued RFPs or IFBs between January and June 2026 that encompassed frozen or fresh produce items as part of comprehensive school nutrition procurement.
