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 is a Commodity code that nominally covers a single produce item, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code show little alignment with frozen organic tomatoes specifically. Instead, the posting record spans broad food-service procurement across school nutrition programs and state agency food operations, encompassing fresh produce, frozen foods, grocery staples, dairy, proteins, and specialty items. The issuing bodies are school districts (Savannah-Chatham County, City Schools of Decatur, Early County Board of Education, Rockwood R-VI, Dallas Independent School District, Douglas County School System) and state agencies (Georgia Department of Education or subordinate purchasing offices). This mix indicates the code is applied loosely to food-service categories well beyond frozen tomatoes; the actual work being solicited is annual food-service contracts for school lunch and breakfast programs, state agency meal operations, and supporting supplies. School districts dominate the recent opportunity set, with Douglas County, Savannah-Chatham, and Decatur appearing more than once.

Geographic concentration is heavy in Georgia and includes Missouri (Rockwood R-VI) and Texas (Dallas ISD). Representative recent opportunities include Early County Board of Education (RFP, due June 8, 2026) seeking line-by-line bids for food and non-food products across approximately 300 food items and 60 supply items for school nutrition programs; Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (sealed bid, due April 23, 2026) soliciting fresh produce across 72 line items with estimated annual quantities ranging to 21,125 cases; City Schools of Decatur (IFB, due May 15, 2026) for frozen foods and grocery items meeting whole-grain and low-sodium specifications; and Dallas Independent School District (RFP, due April 2, 2026) for various food products not available through main commodity bids, with spice and ice cream lots and non-preferred-ingredients compliance under Texas law. Douglas County School System issued two separate RFPs: one for fresh produce and eggs spanning 30 school districts with estimated annual spend of approximately $5.5 million (due March 4, 2026), and another for main-line food supply and distribution with estimated annual expenditure of approximately $9,000,000 for 32,500 students (due February 18, 2026). The code shows substantial recent activity but tracks poorly to its stated commodity definition.
