UNSPSC 50454819: Frozen organic white mushrooms

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

UNSPSC 50454819 Frozen organic white mushrooms is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of specialty produce items, though recent solicitations show the code applies more broadly to food purchasing across school nutrition programs, senior services, and state agency cafeteria operations. The work actually being solicited under this code spans shelf-stable and fresh food products for institutional food service, including canned vegetables, proteins, dairy, and produce delivered to schools, senior centers, and state facilities. Issuing bodies include county purchasing offices (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), state departments (State of Georgia), and independent school districts (Early County Board of Education). Solicitations emphasize domestic sourcing where required, compliance with USDA nutrition standards and whole-grain specifications for school meal programs, food safety documentation (HACCP plans, recall procedures), temperature-controlled delivery for perishables, and adherence to Buy American provisions. Vendors must carry specified insurance ($500,000 general liability minimum in school district contracts), pass debarment screening for awards above $25,000, and satisfy E-Verify requirements.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an IWQ (informal written quote) on October 13, 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, and canned vegetables) for the Department of Community Services, with quotes due October 19, 2026 and delivery required by December 7, 2026 to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center in Lawrenceville. The State of Georgia issued an IFB on May 15, 2026 for food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 deadline. Early County Board of Education solicited line-by-line bids on May 11, 2026 for 300+ food items plus non-food supplies to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program across three schools, with bids due June 8, 2026 and a contract period of July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Award in school district contracts is made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder based on per-unit pricing calculations, with firm pricing for 15 days post-award and escalation requests thereafter supported by USDA or Consumer Price Index data.
