UNSPSC 50456422: Frozen organic tigerella tomatoes

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

UNSPSC 50456422 Frozen organic tigerella tomatoes is a Commodity code. State and local governments buy frozen specialty produce items—particularly through school nutrition programs and institutional food service—under this code, though recent activity centers on broader frozen and fresh produce procurement rather than the specific tigerella variety. The mix of issuing bodies reflects the school nutrition focus: Early County Board of Education (Georgia), City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Dallas Independent School District (Texas) dominate recent solicitations. These districts source frozen vegetables, fruits, and specialty produce as part of line-item-based food service contracts that span meats, dairy, grains, condiments, and prepared entrees. Institutional buyers—state departments and school districts—issue IFBs and RFPs with firm pricing, delivery-included cost structures, HACCP compliance requirements, and Buy American provisions. School nutrition contracts typically run July through June with renewal options, span 300 to 900+ line items, and emphasize whole-grain, low-sodium, and zero-trans-fat specifications.

Georgia and Texas show the strongest recent activity. The Douglas County School System (Georgia) issued RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across a 30-district cooperative on February 4, 2026, with bids due March 4, 2026, targeting approximately $5.5 million in annual spending. Dallas Independent School District (Texas) posted an RFP on February 22, 2026 (due April 2, 2026) for various food products including specialty items not covered by main commodity bids, requiring electronic submission through Bonfire and covering the 2026-2027 school year (May 29, 2026–May 28, 2027). Early County Board of Education (Georgia) issued a line-by-line food bid on May 11, 2026 (due June 8, 2026) spanning 300+ food items with emphasis on low-sodium, no-added-sugar formulations and domestic sourcing. Frozen and specialty produce typically appear as subset line items within these broader school nutrition awards; tigerella tomatoes specifically would compete as a frozen vegetable option under institutional or specialty produce categories. No set-asides are designated in recent solicitations; awards favor lowest responsive and responsible bidders with demonstrated experience, proper insurance, and HACCP compliance.
