UNSPSC 50456222: Frozen organic sugar loaf squash

The variety of organic summer squashes and summer pumpkins known as organic sugar loaf squash that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50456222 Frozen organic sugar loaf squash is a Commodity code. The recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows school districts and state agencies buying frozen vegetables and mixed produce as components of broader food-service solicitations for child nutrition and general food supplies. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) requested frozen and fresh produce for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program; Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) sought grocery items including frozen vegetables as part of a 900+ line-item procurement; and the State of Georgia issued an invitation for bid on fresh produce to support state operations. These solicitations frame the code's practical scope as components of institutional food-service supply contracts rather than standalone frozen-squash purchases. Issuing bodies include school districts (Early County Board of Education in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, City Schools of Decatur in Georgia, Dallas Independent School District in Texas, and Douglas County School System in Georgia) and state agencies (State of Georgia). The procurement is distributed across school nutrition programs serving breakfast and lunch operations, with some activity from state food-service operations.

Activity concentrates in Georgia and Missouri, with secondary solicitation activity in Texas. Recent representative opportunities include Early County Board of Education issuing a line-by-line food bid (IFB, due June 8, 2026) for approximately 300 food items plus 60 non-food products supporting meal programs at three schools, with delivery Monday through Friday and contract performance from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027; Rockwood R-VI School District Child Nutrition Services issuing a solicitation (due April 29, 2026) for over 900 grocery line items supporting approximately 6,900 daily lunch and 900 daily breakfast participants across the 2026-27 school year; and the State of Georgia issuing an Invitation for Bid (IFB #4 2027-2026, due May 27, 2026) for fresh produce to support state operations. School districts emphasize domestic sourcing, low-sodium formulations, whole-grain options, HACCP compliance, and $500,000 to $1,000,000 general liability insurance minimums, with pricing remaining firm for contract periods and subsequent adjustments permitted only when supported by USDA or market-index documentation.
