UNSPSC 50455608: Frozen organic specialty potatoes

The variety of organic potatoes known as organic specialty potatoes that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50455608 Frozen organic specialty potatoes is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, maps only loosely to actual procurement activity. The code nominally describes a single product line—frozen potatoes with organic certification—but the recent opportunities in the dataset tag generic food service procurement (comprehensive school nutrition programs, district-wide grocery and produce buys, food service distribution) with this code despite covering hundreds of line items across meats, dairy, produce, grains, condiments, and supplies that fall well outside frozen organic potatoes. State and local issuing bodies driving this activity are predominantly school districts and school boards (Early County Board of Education in Georgia, City Schools of Decatur in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Dallas Independent School District in Texas, Douglas County School System in Georgia) with one state-level procurement from the State of Georgia. These jurisdictions solicit food service contracts annually to support National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program operations.

Recent representative solicitations include Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs (due March 4, 2026, covering 30 school districts across two Georgia areas with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million and $1.1 million per area), Dallas Independent School District's RFP for various food products (due April 2, 2026, structured on a line-item and lot basis for non-commodity food items), Rockwood R-VI School District's IFB for grocery items (due April 29, 2026, spanning 900+ line items with delivery by April 29, 2026), and City Schools of Decatur's IFB for frozen foods and grocery items (due May 15, 2026, with optional pre-bid conference April 29, 2026). Activity clusters in Georgia and Missouri, with solicitations from the State of Georgia itself. The code shows little relevant recent activity tied directly to frozen organic potatoes; procurement staff should verify the accurate UNSPSC mapping before pursuing opportunities nominally tagged under this code.
