UNSPSC 50404109: Dill

The variety of herbs known as dill

UNSPSC 50404109 Dill is a Commodity code that maps to shelf-stable and frozen food procurement for state and local institutions. State and local governments use this code to solicit bulk purchases of staple groceries — including prepared proteins, dairy, grains, produce, condiments, and consumable serviceware — for supply to correctional facilities, state hospitals, state supported living centers, senior service programs, and other public institutions. The issuing bodies span state procurement offices (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, State of Georgia, State of Illinois), county purchasing divisions (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), and regional state entities managing multiple facilities. Recent solicitations show that state health and human services agencies are the dominant buyers under this code, particularly in Texas, where multiple ongoing institutional food supply chains drive repeat procurement cycles.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing multiple IFBs across its network of state supported living centers (Mexia and El Paso facilities represented in the June–August 2026 cycle), and the Texas Comptroller issuing on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for cafeteria food products across five geographic distribution areas. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia) posted an informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026. The State of Illinois solicited weekly food orders for the July–September quarter due June 26, 2026. The State of Georgia posted a food and kitchen products solicitation due June 22, 2026. Pricing in recent opportunities ranges from historical annual values of $158,000 to $1.5 million for individual facilities, with Texas HHSC supplemental food procurement potentially reaching $4.5 million over three years across multiple state hospitals and supported living centers. Most solicitations use IFB format with firm, fixed unit pricing on detailed line-item sheets, delivery FOB destination or with inside delivery required, and contract terms running fiscal or calendar year with optional renewal periods. Pre-bid meetings and addenda cycles are standard; questions deadlines typically precede response dates by one to two weeks.
