UNSPSC 50455509: Frozen organic manzano peppers

The variety of organic peppers known as organic manzano peppers that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50455509 Frozen organic manzano peppers is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of specialty produce items for institutional food service, though recent solicitations under this code show a broader pattern of food-service aggregation rather than frozen organic peppers as a discrete line item. Gwinnett County's October 2026 informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services and Early County Board of Education's June 2026 line-by-line food bid for school lunch and breakfast programs illustrate the actual buying pattern: counties, school districts, and state agencies are bundling produce, proteins, dairy, and ancillary food-service supplies into consolidated procurements where frozen organic peppers would appear as one SKU among dozens or hundreds. The State of Georgia's May 2026 food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid similarly reflects aggregated institutional food buying. Counties and school districts dominate the issuing bodies, with state-level participation in specialized categories like kitchen products.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia, with Gwinnett County (October 2026 IWQ 140229, response due October 19, 2026), Early County Board of Education (June 2026 FY27 Food Bid, response due June 8, 2026), and the State of Georgia (May 2026 bid, response due June 22, 2026) as the identified buyers. Early County's bid emphasizes domestic sourcing preferences, whole-grain options, low-sodium formulations, and products without added sugars or artificial additives, with award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder and a contract period of July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Gwinnett County accepts informal written quotes with delivery F.O.B. destination within 72 hours of order receipt when possible and all items received by December 7, 2026, and awards based on lowest unit of measure calculation. Both solicitations permit brand equivalents and require vendor references; neither names frozen organic manzano peppers explicitly. The code shows limited recent activity as a standalone commodity line, surfacing instead as an embedded item in larger institutional food-service aggregations.
