UNSPSC 50456858: Frozen organic taro shoot

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

UNSPSC 50456858 Frozen organic taro shoot is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to its scope. The recent-opportunities block contains no solicitations for frozen organic taro shoot or closely related frozen specialty vegetables; instead, the opportunities tagged to this code reflect broad food service procurement for school nutrition programs and state agency operations spanning fresh produce, frozen foods, grocery items, and full-line food supply distribution. The code shows little evidence of active purchasing for the specific product line it names, and the opportunities present appear to be misaligned tag assignments rather than genuine demand signals for frozen taro or similar frozen organic vegetables in state and local contracting.

School districts and state agencies across Georgia, Missouri, and Texas dominate the recent activity, with the Douglas County School System (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Early County Board of Education (Georgia), City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), Rockwood School District (Missouri), Dallas Independent School District (Texas), and the State of Georgia all posting food procurement RFPs and IFBs between January and June 2026. Representative opportunities include the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs covering 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million to $1.1 million by geographic area (due March 4, 2026); Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid for 300+ items supporting the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs (due June 8, 2026); and Dallas Independent School District's RFP for various food products not covered by main commodity bids (due April 2, 2026). These solicitations emphasize Buy American compliance, HACCP plans, food safety standards, firm pricing with limited escalation provisions, and delivery to multiple school sites. Frozen taro shoot specifically does not appear in any of the named opportunities, suggesting this code warrants close monitoring for future activity but presents no current pursuit opportunity based on recent state and local demand.
