UNSPSC 50405641: Aji montana

Variety of chilis known as aji montana

UNSPSC 50405641 Aji montana is a Commodity code that represents fresh chili peppers, though state and local procurement activity under this specific code is minimal. Recent solicitations tagged to this code show little activity directly aligned with aji montana procurement; instead, the dataset reflects broader fresh produce and food service supply activity across state agencies, school districts, county governments, and institutional food services. The issuing bodies soliciting fresh produce more broadly—Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Department of Corrections, school nutrition programs in Georgia and Wisconsin, and county and municipal governments—buy prepared and bulk food items, fresh fruits and vegetables, and food service supplies for institutional dining, canteen operations, and student meal programs. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission soliciting consumables and prepared foods for state-supported living centers (IFB HHS0018082, due October 23, 2026), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice requesting fresh fruit and vegetable deliveries to multiple warehouse locations (IW267420 for Snyder, IW267411 for Wynne, both due October 14, 2026), and the Illinois Department of Corrections requesting fresh produce delivery to Joliet Treatment Center under a small-business set-aside (IFB 27426DOCJOLIEB53849, due September 3, 2026).

Geographic spread of recent fresh produce procurement concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Illinois, with Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Texas Health and Human Services Commission dominating the posting volume. School districts in Georgia and Wisconsin, including Dougherty County Board of Education, Bartow County School System, Early County Board of Education, and Madison Metropolitan School District, are active procurers of fresh produce for school nutrition programs. The procurement activity reflects institutional food service demand—serving incarcerated populations, residents in state-supported living centers, school children, and senior centers—rather than commercial or retail distribution. Cost sensitivity, delivery compliance, food safety certification, and compliance with prevailing-wage and set-aside requirements are consistent themes across solicitations. Few recent opportunities are directly tagged to aji montana specifically; most fresh-produce procurement is classified under broader commodity codes or by issuing body rather than by specific produce type, making this Commodity code a low-activity classification for state and local business development purposes.
