UNSPSC 50423302: Dried nasturtium

The variety of cresses known as nasturtium that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50423302 Dried nasturtium is a Commodity code that nominally denotes a dried culinary herb but sees no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with that narrow scope. The source contains fourteen recent opportunities tagged under this code, yet only two are substantively relevant to dried nasturtium or closely related dried botanicals: the Oregon Department of Corrections issued two separate invitations to bid for dried pinto and red beans (127,500 pounds in March 2026 and 42,500 pounds in June 2026), with response dates of March 20, 2026 and June 19, 2026. The remaining twelve opportunities—spanning school districts, child nutrition programs, correctional food service, and state procurement offices—solicit fresh produce, grocery staples, prepared entrees, dairy, proteins, and broad food-supply categories with no connection to dried nasturtium or similar specialty dried herbs. The code appears to be a misfiled or overly broad catch-all within state and local food-service procurement systems rather than a genuine market signal for this specific commodity.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting food items under this code include the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, City of Edinburg Texas, and the States of Illinois and Georgia. Geographic activity is concentrated in the South and Southeast—Texas, Georgia, Missouri, South Carolina, and Virginia—with secondary activity in the Pacific Northwest (Oregon). The only opportunities with substantive relevance to the code's stated commodity involve dried beans procurement by the Oregon Department of Corrections under two separate ITBs with response deadlines in March and June 2026. Absent clearer taxonomy alignment or demand signals for dried nasturtium specifically, the code merits skipping; pursue the Oregon dried-bean opportunities directly if the commodity matches your product line, but expect continued misfiling or scope drift under this UNSPSC designation.
