UNSPSC 50456400: Frozen organic tomatoes

The type of organic vegetable known as organic tomatoes that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50456400 Frozen organic tomatoes is a Class code that sits within a broader food-procurement taxonomy, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it reflect shelf-stable and fresh food purchasing for school nutrition, senior services, and institutional meal programs rather than frozen organic tomatoes specifically. State and local governments procuring under this code are buying bulk institutional food — canned proteins, vegetables, grains, dairy, meats, poultry, seafood, and bread products — for National School Lunch Programs, School Breakfast Programs, senior services centers, and state agency food operations. Issuing bodies include county boards of education, county departments of community services, and state purchasing offices. The solicitations emphasize domestic sourcing, USDA compliance (whole-grain standards, Grade A pasteurized milk, biosecurity), HACCP plans, and product specifications tied to nutrition and food-safety regulation rather than commodity sourcing alone.
