UNSPSC 50421918: Dried monaco beets

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

UNSPSC 50421918 Dried monaco beets, a Commodity code, shows minimal direct recent procurement activity in state and local government contracting. The recent opportunities recorded under this code do not align with the commodity's specific scope — the citations include general school nutrition grocery solicitations, fresh produce contracts, and broader food supply procurements that encompass dried beans, fresh vegetables, fruits, and prepared entrees but do not isolate or specifically call for dried monaco beets as a line item.

State and local food service buyers—primarily school districts and departments of corrections—do purchase dried legumes and vegetable products as part of school nutrition programs and institutional meal service, but the available records show dried pinto and red beans solicited by the Oregon Department of Corrections (ITB S-29100-00016233, March 2026, and ITB S-29100-00017140, June 2026) and fresh produce across multiple school districts including Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Douglas County School System (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), and the City of Edinburg (Texas). Issuing bodies span state corrections departments, county and district school nutrition programs, and municipal food service agencies. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, and Virginia, with secondary activity in Missouri and other states. The code itself does not appear to be a standard taxonomy entry for state and local purchasing, and recent solicitations tagged to it reflect broader food procurement categories rather than the specific dried monaco beet product line.
