UNSPSC 50422106: Dried rubine brussel sprouts

The variety of brussel sprouts known as rubine brussel sprouts that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50422106 Dried Rubine Brussel Sprouts, a Commodity code, captures state and local procurement of dried vegetable products for institutional food service, though recent solicitations show the code sees minimal direct activity focused specifically on this item—most identified opportunities pursue broader fresh and processed vegetable categories alongside proteins, grains, and prepared foods rather than dried brussel sprouts in isolation. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under related dried-vegetable and institutional-grocery codes include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI and Muscogee County in Missouri and Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia, Douglas County in Georgia), state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice via the Texas Comptroller, Georgia and Illinois state procurement), city government (City of Edinburg, Texas), and county school systems. The Oregon Department of Corrections has been a repeat buyer of dried legumes—issuing separate solicitations for dried pinto and red beans (127,500 pounds, March 2026 ITB S2910000016233 with a March 20 deadline) and again for dried pinto and red beans (42,500 pounds, June 2026 ITB S2910000017140 with a June 19 deadline)—indicating sustained institutional demand for shelf-stable dried protein and vegetable products.

Activity concentrates in the South and Pacific Northwest. Oregon has posted multiple dried-bean solicitations through ODOC with standing preferences for Oregon-fabricated goods and Oregon-based vendors (5 percent each, applied to evaluation pricing). Georgia school districts dominate the recent-opportunities block, with Douglas County School System, Muscogee County, and Savannah-Chatham County issuing separate RFPs and ITBs for fresh produce, eggs, and integrated food-supply contracts in early 2026; the Douglas County RFP for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative covered 30 school districts across two regions with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million and $1.1 million respectively (responses due March 4, 2026). Texas has posted multiple broad cafeteria and meal-program solicitations—the City of Edinburg CACFP meal-program RFP (responses due August 4, 2026) and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products IFB No. 304T-26-300CF covering 382 line items with delivery to six TDCJ distribution points (responses extended to May 4, 2026). Virginia's Fairfax County Public Schools issued Master Grocery K-12 IFB 2000004323 for supply to 45 schools, seven distribution kitchens, and a central warehouse (responses due April 27, 2026). No recent solicitation explicitly names dried brussel sprouts as a line item; the code shows little standalone procurement activity and may not reflect actual state and local purchasing patterns for this specific commodity.
