UNSPSC 50456815: Frozen organic carob

The type of organic vegetable known as organic carob that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50456815 Frozen organic carob is a Commodity code with little relevant recent activity. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code overwhelmingly reflect broad school nutrition procurements for fresh produce, frozen foods, grocery staples, eggs, and food service distribution — none of which involve carob products specifically. The code's nominal scope (frozen organic carob) diverges sharply from what jurisdictions are actually buying under it in practice. School districts, county public school systems, and state education agencies are the dominant issuing bodies pursuing food service contracts, but their solicitations target mainstream nutrition items rather than specialty carob products.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with the Douglas County School System (Georgia), City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), the State of Georgia, Dallas Independent School District (Texas), Early County Board of Education (Georgia), and Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) posting RFPs and IFBs between February and May 2026. Representative recent opportunities include Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-003 for Food Supply and Distribution Services (RFP due February 18, 2026, estimated annual expenditure $9 million) and RFP SN 26-004 for Fresh Produce and Eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative covering 30 districts (RFP due March 4, 2026, estimated annual spending $5.5 million combined across two areas). City Schools of Decatur's IFB for Frozen Foods and Grocery (due May 15, 2026) and the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's bid for fresh produce (due April 23, 2026) represent additional representative activity. Vendors pursuing this code should expect to compete on mainstream school meal products with stringent USDA compliance, Buy American provisions, HACCP requirements, and firm pricing structures; specialized carob sourcing does not surface in current demand signals.
