UNSPSC 50423400: Dried cucumbers

The type of vegetable known as cucumbers that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50423400 Dried cucumbers, a Class code, does not align with the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it. The source records show solicitations for kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans, and broad-spectrum food and cafeteria products for correctional institutions, school meal programs, and state agencies—none of which are dried cucumbers. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the procurement databases or that the code is being applied outside its nominal scope. The code shows little relevant recent activity in the state and local market when defined by its actual product name.

The recent opportunities that carry this code designation span corrections departments, state food procurement, and child and adult care food programs across Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois. Georgia Correctional Industries issued an RFQ (due October 9, 2026) for kidney beans in 880-bag increments, while the Oregon Department of Corrections sought approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (due June 19, 2026) with a 10% evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated and Oregon-headquartered vendors. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, issued an IFB for cafeteria food products spanning 382 line items across proteins, dairy, grains, and staples (extended response due May 4, 2026). The City of Edinburg, Texas, solicited food and nonfood items under an RFP for a Child and Adult Care Food Program serving 400 children daily, with a local-vendor preference favoring bids within 5% of the lowest price under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051. Because the code's nominal product—dried cucumbers—does not appear in any recent state or local opportunity, interested vendors should verify actual procurement demand before committing business development resources to this UNSPSC classification.
