UNSPSC 50455215: Frozen organic sturon onions

The variety of organic onions known as organic sturon onions that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50455215 Frozen organic sturon onions, a Commodity code, covers frozen specialty onion products procured by state and local jurisdictions for food service and institutional nutrition programs. Recent state and local solicitations under this code reflect procurement of shelf-stable and refrigerated food items for senior services, school nutrition, and general food supply — though the specific frozen organic sturon onion product line itself does not appear prominently in recent postings. Instead, the code sits within a broader family of food procurement where state and local buyers issue RFQs, RFPs, and line-by-line bids for packaged and fresh food inventory to support cafeterias, senior centers, and food assistance programs. Issuing bodies include county purchasing offices, state procurement divisions, and independent school districts; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners and the State of Georgia have both solicited food supply contracts in the past six months, as have smaller rural school districts.

Recent activity centers on Georgia, where Gwinnett County issued an RFQ on October 13, 2026 (due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and proteins for senior services delivery, the State of Georgia posted a food supplies bid on May 15, 2026 (due June 22, 2026), and Early County Board of Education solicited line-by-line food bids on May 11, 2026 (due June 8, 2026) for school lunch and breakfast program inventory. School district bids typically emphasize domestic sourcing, whole-grain formulations, low-sodium options, and fresh produce delivery with strict temperature and stock rotation controls; county and state bids structure awards on lowest unit-cost calculation with splits by line item permitted. Vendors should expect firm pricing for 15 days post-award, compliance with Buy American provisions and HACCP plans where applicable, and F.O.B. destination delivery within tight windows — often 72 hours of order placement for senior services and 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. weekday delivery slots for schools.
