UNSPSC 50456401: Frozen organic ailsa craig tomatoes

The variety of organic tomatoes known as organic ailsa craig tomatoes that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50456401 Frozen organic Ailsa Craig tomatoes, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product line within state and local food procurement that state and local governments purchase as shelf-stable or refrigerated inventory for meal programs, senior services, and emergency food assistance. However, the recent solicitations available show no direct procurement activity for frozen organic Ailsa Craig tomatoes specifically; instead, the code appears in state and local notices that cast a wider net for bulk food procurement across multiple product categories. The issuing bodies soliciting under or near this code include county purchasing offices, state procurement divisions, and school districts. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an informal written quote request (IWQ 140229) in October 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, and canned vegetables) for the Department of Community Services, with delivery required by December 7, 2026. Early County Board of Education issued a line-by-line food bid in May 2026 covering 300+ food items to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, emphasizing whole-grain and low-sodium options, domestic sourcing, and products without added sugars or artificial additives. The State of Georgia posted a general food, supplies, and kitchen products bid in May 2026 with scope details contained in an attached solicitation document.

Activity under this code concentrates in Georgia, where Gwinnett County, Early County Schools, and the state procurement division have posted food-related solicitations between May and October 2026. The Gwinnett County quote request (due October 19, 2026) requires delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center in Lawrenceville, Georgia within 72 hours of order receipt when possible, with F.O.B. Destination and inside delivery required; award is made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder using per-ounce or equivalent unit pricing. The Early County Schools bid (due June 8, 2026) runs July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with options to extend up to three months at firm bid pricing and possibility of multi-year renewal, requires compliance with Buy American provisions and HACCP plans, and mandates $500,000 general liability insurance. Recent opportunity records show no explicit solicitations for frozen organic Ailsa Craig tomatoes as a line item, suggesting the code may be overtagged in state and local notices or reflects a mismatch between the narrow commodity definition and the broad food-procurement activity actually being purchased.
