UNSPSC 50456831: Frozen organic gobo

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

UNSPSC 50456831 Frozen organic gobo, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The nine opportunities posted between January and June 2026 are all tagged with this code but contain no solicitations for frozen organic gobo or anything resembling it. Instead, the opportunities span fresh produce (apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, peppers, tomatoes, leafy greens, citrus, potatoes), eggs, frozen and grocery items (meats, poultry, seafood, dairy, grains, condiments), specialty products (spices, ice cream), and food service distribution—none of which match the code's nominal scope. The mismatch suggests either a systematic classification error in how these opportunities are tagged or a disconnect between the code's definition and actual procurement usage.

School districts and school nutrition authorities dominate the issuing bodies, with activity concentrated in Georgia (Douglas County School System, City Schools of Decatur, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Early County Board of Education, state-level Georgia procurement) and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District) and Texas (Dallas Independent School District). The opportunities represent high-volume, recurring annual contracts for child nutrition and school lunch programs, with notice types predominantly RFP and IFB, response dates spanning January through June 2026. Representative solicitations include the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-003 for food supply and distribution services (due February 18, 2026, estimated $9 million annual spend), the City Schools of Decatur IFB for frozen foods and grocery (due May 15, 2026), and Dallas Independent School District RFP for various food products (due April 2, 2026). Given the consistent mismatch between code assignment and actual procurement scope, this code should be monitored for reclassification or treated as inactive for frozen organic gobo procurement purposes.
