UNSPSC 50456502: Frozen organic golden ball turnips

The variety of organic turnips known as organic golden ball turnips that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50456502 Frozen organic golden ball turnips is a Commodity code that in practice captures state and local procurement of shelf-stable and perishable food products for institutional food service — school meal programs, senior services, and general government food supply. The recent solicitations under this code show no activity directly targeting frozen organic turnips; instead, Gwinnett County, the State of Georgia, and Early County Board of Education are buying broad categories of food items including proteins, vegetables, dairy, grains, and condiments to support cafeterias, senior meal programs, and institutional kitchens. The code appears to serve as a catch-all taxonomy entry for individual commodity line items within larger food procurement vehicles, but the actual buying activity is aggregated across multiple food categories rather than isolated to specialty produce items.

State and local issuing bodies across Georgia have posted three opportunities under or near this code since May 2026. Early County Board of Education issued an RFQ (IFB format) due June 8, 2026 for approximately 300 food items plus non-food supplies to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, with emphasis on domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, and low-sodium formulations. Gwinnett County issued an informal written quote (IWQ) due October 19, 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins, vegetables, sauces, and condiments for the Department of Community Services. The State of Georgia issued a statewide bid due June 22, 2026 for food, supplies, and other kitchen products with full scope contained in an attached solicitation document. Geographic activity is concentrated in Georgia; no recent opportunities under this code appear in other states in the source materials.
