UNSPSC 50456004: Frozen organic wood sorrel

The variety of organic sorrel known as organic wood sorrel that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50456004 Frozen organic wood sorrel is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure shelf-stable and fresh food products for institutional feeding programs, senior services, and school nutrition initiatives. The code's nominal scope (frozen organic wood sorrel, a specialty produce item) does not align with the actual procurement activity under it. Recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code show purchasing of bulk food staples — canned proteins, peanut butter, jelly, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, and canned vegetables — rather than organic wood sorrel or similar specialty produce. The issuing bodies are county governments, state agencies, and school districts; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners and the Early County Board of Education have posted solicitations within the past six months. Work includes purchasing food items for senior services centers, school lunch and breakfast programs, and general institutional food distribution.

Recent opportunities span Georgia, with activity from Gwinnett County (informal written quote, October 19, 2026 response due), Early County Schools (IFB for food and non-food products, June 8, 2026 response due), and the State of Georgia (bids for food, supplies, and kitchen products, June 22, 2026 response due). The Gwinnett County solicitation requested approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for delivery by December 7, 2026; the Early County Board of Education solicitation encompassed 300+ food items plus 60 non-food and paper products for the National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs with a contract period July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Bidders must meet delivery scheduling requirements (Monday through Friday, 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.), comply with Buy American provisions where applicable, maintain food safety certifications including HACCP plans, carry liability insurance (typically $500,000 general liability), and pass E-Verify and debarment verification.
