UNSPSC 50456229: Frozen organic zucchini squash

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

UNSPSC 50456229 Frozen organic zucchini squash is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of specialized frozen produce items for institutional food service. However, the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations specifically requesting frozen organic zucchini squash or any frozen organic vegetables. The opportunities posted under this code span much broader food service procurement — fresh produce, dried goods, grocery staples, dairy, proteins, and prepared items for school nutrition programs and state operations — rather than the narrow commodity this code nominally describes. The issuing bodies are primarily school districts (Early County Board of Education, Rockwood R-VI, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Dallas Independent School District, Douglas County School System) and state agencies (State of Georgia), reflecting the institutional foodservice market where frozen specialty produce would compete. The City Schools of Decatur also appears as an issuer for frozen foods procurement, suggesting school districts remain the dominant buyer segment.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Missouri, with secondary activity in Texas. The Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 (posted February 4, 2026, due March 4, 2026) is the closest relevant opportunity—a fresh produce and eggs procurement serving 30 school districts across Georgia with estimated spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two, though it explicitly covers fresh produce and eggs rather than frozen specialty items. The City Schools of Decatur IFB (posted April 16, 2026, due May 15, 2026) requests frozen foods and grocery items for school nutrition, but the full scope in that opportunity remains unavailable. Early County Board of Education's FY27 Food Bid (posted May 11, 2026, due June 8, 2026) encompasses approximately 300+ food items and 60+ non-food products with line-item bidding, but similarly does not specifically isolate frozen organic produce. The code shows little direct recent activity matching its specific commodity scope; business development professionals should treat this code as showing limited current state and local procurement opportunity and monitor whether frozen organic produce emerges as a distinct line item in broader school nutrition or state food service RFPs.
