UNSPSC 50455909 Frozen organic red potato onions is a Commodity code that represents frozen prepared vegetable products for institutional food service. State and local procurement activity under this code reflects demand from school nutrition programs, state institutions, and municipal food operations for pre-processed frozen vegetables that meet USDA compliance and food safety standards. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with recent opportunities posted by independent school districts, county school systems, and regional cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multiple districts. State procurement offices and municipal agencies also solicit frozen vegetable products through commodity food procurement cycles. The scope of work includes supply and delivery of frozen vegetables meeting specific nutritional requirements (whole-grain parity, low-sodium formulations, zero trans fat per serving), HACCP certification, food recall capability, proper temperature maintenance upon delivery, and compliance with Buy American provisions where applicable.
