UNSPSC 50422905: Dried ione limnos chicory

The variety of chicory known as ione limnos chicory that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50422905 Dried ione limnos chicory, a Commodity code, does not match the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities in the block above span fresh produce, dried beans, cafeteria food products, and master grocery supply to schools and corrections facilities — none of which reference ione limnos chicory or dried chicory root as a specified line item. The code's nominal scope appears misaligned with actual state and local buying patterns, and the source does not support any recent solicitations for dried chicory products.

State and local procurement bodies that posted opportunities tagged to this code include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri; Muscogee County School District and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia; Douglas County School System in Georgia), corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections; Texas Department of Criminal Justice), child nutrition programs (City of Edinburg, Texas; Boys & Girls Club), the State of Illinois, and the State of Georgia. Recent activity appears concentrated in Georgia, Texas, Virginia, Missouri, and Oregon. Representative solicitations include Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) spanning 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens; the Oregon Department of Corrections' procurement for 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (ITB S2910000017140, due June 19, 2026); and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's cafeteria food products IFB (304T-26-300CF, extended to May 4, 2026) covering approximately 382 line items across proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, and staple items. The geographic and issuing-body distribution does not reveal obvious concentration, but the mismatch between the code name and recent buying activity suggests this code is either rarely used for chicory purchases or incorrectly tagged in the procurement system.
