UNSPSC 50606403 Frozen Non GMO black plum tomatoes (Commodity) shows minimal recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's narrow product scope — a single specialty produce item — does not align with the recent opportunities posted under this classification. The sourcing bodies identified in the database include school districts (Early County Board of Education, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, City Schools of Decatur, Dallas Independent School District) and state purchasing offices (State of Georgia) soliciting food service products for child nutrition programs. However, the actual opportunities tagged to this code encompass broad food procurement — frozen and grocery items, fresh produce assortments, dairy, proteins, and miscellaneous food service supplies — rather than frozen black plum tomatoes specifically.

Recent state and local food procurement activity clusters in Georgia and Missouri, with secondary activity in Texas.
