UNSPSC 50606908 Frozen Non GMO Oregon Sugar Pod Peas is a Commodity code describing shelf-stable frozen vegetable products purchased by state and local food service operations. Recent solicitations under this code show state and local governments procuring frozen and shelf-stable food products—including frozen vegetables, canned proteins, rice, pasta, and condiments—primarily through county purchasing departments, state procurement offices, and school district food service programs. The work centers on volume purchasing of food items for senior services, institutional meal programs (National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program), and community food distribution, with vendors expected to meet specifications for product quality, labeling, delivery timing, temperature control where applicable, and compliance with domestic sourcing and nutritional preferences. Issuing bodies include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, the State of Georgia, and independent school districts; school districts appear as repeat buyers seeking annual food service contracts with line-item bidding and multi-vendor award structures.
