UNSPSC 50336306: Dried organic valentine rhubarb

The variety of organic rhubarb known as organic valentine rhubarb that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50336306 Dried organic valentine rhubarb is a Commodity code that appears to receive minimal relevant activity in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities block names five solicitations, but four of them—covering fresh produce for school nutrition (Hancock County Schools), general commodities for school food service (City of Bridgeport), food and kitchen supplies (State of Georgia), and cafeteria products for correctional facilities (Texas Department of Criminal Justice)—span broad food procurement categories that do not align with the code's narrow focus on dried organic valentine rhubarb specifically. Only one solicitation, issued by TDCJ for whole pitted dried prunes (Bid No. IW236532, due February 20, 2026), addresses a dried fruit commodity, and it targets a different dried fruit product entirely. The code nominally describes a specialized agricultural input that does not appear in recent school nutrition, institutional food service, or state procurement solicitations.

State and local buyers soliciting under this code, when activity is present, include school districts and state agencies managing nutrition programs and institutional food service. The geographic spread of recent activity includes Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas, though the opportunities posted are predominantly broad commodity and fresh-produce solicitations rather than acquisitions of dried rhubarb specifically. The TDCJ prunes procurement demonstrates that state correctional agencies do buy dried fruit products for institutional dining, but no posted opportunity names valentine rhubarb or its variants as a line item. Bidders pursuing this code should expect limited and episodic solicitation volume tied to specialized institutional or specialty food service demand rather than recurring annual nutrition contracts.
