UNSPSC 50421910: Dried cylindra beets

The variety of beets known as cylindra beets that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50421910 Dried cylindra beets is a Commodity code that sees minimal direct recent procurement activity; state and local governments buying under this specific code are essentially absent from current solicitations. The most recent opportunities naming dried cylindra beets do not appear in the recent-opportunities dataset provided. Instead, the dataset shows state and local solicitations for broader dried-bean categories (pinto beans, red beans) and fresh produce, beverages, proteins, and general grocery items serving school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and child care operations. When dried vegetables are procured at the commodity level, they typically appear as line items within larger food-service RFPs rather than as standalone solicitations, and they are often bundled with proteins, grains, and other staple foods under master grocery or cafeteria-food-products codes.

The issuing bodies active in the dried-bean and produce space—which represents the closest commodity-family activity to dried cylindra beets—include state departments of corrections (Oregon Department of Corrections), state procurement offices acting on behalf of corrections systems (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts for TDCJ), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), municipalities (City of Edinburg, Texas), and state agencies (Georgia, Illinois). Recent opportunities show ITBs and RFPs for dried pinto beans (Oregon Department of Corrections, two separate solicitations in March and June 2026), fresh produce and eggs (multiple Georgia school districts via cooperative purchasing), and master grocery contracts (Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026; Rockwood R-VI School District grocery items solicitation due April 29, 2026). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Missouri, and Virginia. The code itself shows no current standalone procurement; pursuit under this UNSPSC designation should be treated as a watch position pending emergence of direct solicitations or discovery of opportunities where dried cylindra beets are explicitly listed as a line item within broader food-service contracts.
