UNSPSC 50455406: Frozen organic zipper cream peas

The variety of organic peas known as organic zipper cream peas that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50455406 Frozen organic zipper cream peas is a Commodity code capturing shelf-stable and frozen vegetable products that state and local governments procure for foodservice operations, senior services, and institutional meal programs. The code reflects what is actually being solicited: frozen vegetables and related shelf-stable produce items embedded in multi-line food bids that school districts, county government agencies, and state purchasing offices issue to support cafeterias, senior centers, and nutrition programs. While the code's name specifies frozen organic zipper cream peas, the recent opportunities show that state and local buyers source these items as part of broader fresh, frozen, and shelf-stable vegetable product lines within larger food service contracts rather than as standalone line items, and procurement focuses on compliance with nutrition standards, domestic sourcing preferences, and delivery logistics tied to institutional meal-service calendars.

Recent activity shows the code active in Georgia across county, state, and school district issuing bodies. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an IWQ (informal written quote) in October 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables destined for the Department of Community Services Senior Services Center, with quotes due October 19, 2026. Early County Board of Education posted a line-by-line food bid in May 2026 for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program spanning over 300 food items including vegetables, fruits, and related products, with bids due June 8, 2026, and the State of Georgia itself solicited food, supplies, and other kitchen products in May 2026 with a June 22, 2026 response deadline. School districts emphasize domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, low-sodium formulations, and products without added sugars or artificial additives; contracts typically run July through June with price escalation governed by USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index indices capped at 3 percent before alternative sourcing is permitted.
