UNSPSC 50455906: Frozen organic grise de bagnolet shallots

The variety of organic shallots known as organic grise de bagnolet shallots that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50455906 Frozen organic grise de bagnolet shallots is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement appears primarily as one line item within broader food procurement solicitations rather than as a standalone product category. The code's nominal scope — a specific varietal of frozen organic shallots — does not align closely with the representative recent opportunities, which focus on institutional food service procurement across shelf-stable staples, produce, proteins, dairy, and miscellaneous kitchen supplies for county social services, state nutrition programs, and school meal operations. State and local governments procuring food under related codes source through mixed vehicle types including informal written quotes (IWQ), formal IFBs, and multi-line open bids; issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners, state procurement offices, and independent school districts.

Georgia is the primary jurisdiction in the recent opportunity set, with three opportunities posted between May and October 2026: Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an informal written quote (IWQ 140229) with quotes due October 19, 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for the Department of Community Services; the State of Georgia posted a broader food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid due June 22, 2026; and Early County Board of Education released a line-by-line food bid covering 300+ food items plus non-food and paper supplies for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, with bids due June 8, 2026. Awards are typically made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder on a unit-cost basis, with delivery to school or county facilities, temperature-controlled logistics requirements for perishables, and compliance with Buy American provisions, HACCP certification, liability insurance, and E-Verify verification.
