UNSPSC 50456617: Frozen organic turks turban squash

The variety of organic winter squashes and winter pumpkins known as organic turk's turban squash that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50456617 Frozen organic turks turban squash, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product line within institutional food procurement — specifically frozen squash varieties used in public-sector meal programs, senior services, and school nutrition operations. State and local governments buy this code primarily through school districts, county social services departments, and state food-service networks that supply cafeterias, senior centers, and congregate meal programs. Recent solicitations show the code embedded in larger food-service RFQs and IFBs where frozen vegetables are one line item among dozens of shelf-stable and refrigerated products, reflecting how procurement offices typically bundle produce, proteins, dairy, and supplies into single vendor-managed contracts rather than purchasing individual commodity items.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Georgia. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted an informal written quote (IWQ) on October 13, 2026, due October 19, 2026, for approximately 1,062 cases of food items including shelf-stable products for senior services, with delivery required by December 7, 2026 to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center. Early County Board of Education issued a line-by-line food bid on May 11, 2026, due June 8, 2026, encompassing 300+ food items and milk for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program across three schools, running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with renewal options. The State of Georgia solicited food, supplies, and other kitchen products on May 15, 2026, due June 22, 2026, with full scope and pricing in an attached document. The code shows limited recent visibility as a standalone item; frozen organic squash typically appears as a line-item option rather than a primary procurement driver in school district and county institutional-food contracts.
