UNSPSC 50456112: Frozen organic sigmaleaf spinach

The variety of organic spinach known as organic sigmaleaf spinach that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50456112 Frozen organic sigmaleaf spinach is a Commodity code that nominally identifies a single frozen vegetable product, but recent state and local solicitations show little activity directly tied to this specific item. The code appears in school nutrition and food service procurement contexts where frozen produce is one line item among hundreds in broader fresh and frozen grocery buys, rather than as a standalone specialty product. State and local governments procuring under this code are primarily school districts and county school systems purchasing frozen vegetables as components of child nutrition program meal service, alongside fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and dry goods. The issuing bodies include large urban and regional school districts (Dallas ISD, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Douglas County Schools, Decatur City Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Early County Schools) and state procurement offices in Georgia, with school nutrition programs being the dominant buyer category.

Geographic activity clusters in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Missouri. Representative recent opportunities include the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-003 for Food Supply and Distribution Services (due February 18, 2026) seeking a main-line distributor for approximately $9 million annually across 32 schools; the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's Bid 26-34 for fresh produce (due April 23, 2026) encompassing 72 produce line items; the Dallas ISD RFP (due April 2, 2026) for various food products through the Maria Luna Food Service Facilities Warehouse for the 2026-2027 school year; and the Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid (due June 8, 2026) requesting 300+ food items including frozen vegetables to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program. School nutrition contracts typically run July 1 through June 30 with renewal options, require HACCP plans and food safety compliance, specify delivery schedules and temperature control requirements, and evaluate on lowest responsive bid with quality and vendor capability assessment.
