U.S. imports of frozen spinach, uncooked or steam/boil-cooked (HS 071030) totaled $4.3M in April 2026, traded with 16 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataFrozen spinach — whether raw or pre-cooked by steaming or boiling — is classified under a single 10-digit line (0710300000) and is a high-volume commodity serving retail, foodservice, and food-manufacturing channels. Mexico and China are the leading suppliers, representing two very different supply profiles: Mexican product benefits from geographic proximity and USMCA trading conditions, while Chinese product has historically been subject to heightened FDA scrutiny regarding pesticide residues and food safety compliance. Importers sourcing from China should factor in the possibility of FDA import alerts and sampling programs when planning lead times.

FDA has historically placed certain Chinese vegetable products, including spinach, on import alert for pesticide residue violations or other food safety concerns. Importers should check the FDA's current import alert database before sourcing, as affected shipments may be detained without physical examination, significantly disrupting supply chains.
Yes. Frozen spinach that has been seasoned, creamed, or combined with other ingredients (such as in a spinach-cheese blend) is no longer classifiable under 071030 and would instead fall under Chapter 20 as a prepared vegetable product. The 071030 classification applies only to spinach preserved by freezing with no preparation beyond cooking by steaming or boiling.
