UNSPSC 50423405: Dried burpless tasty green cucumbers

The variety of cucumbers known as burpless tasty green cucumbers that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50423405 Dried burpless tasty green cucumbers is a Commodity code nominally framing a specific produce item, but the recent state and local solicitations posted under it do not align with that scope. The opportunities on record show state agencies, correctional departments, and school districts procuring dried beans (kidney, pinto, red, and black), institutional food supplies, cafeteria products, and CACFP meal program components — none of which match the code's stated name. Georgia Correctional Industries is requesting kidney beans in increments of 880 bags; the Oregon Department of Corrections is bidding approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice is procuring 382 line items of cafeteria food products spanning proteins, dairy, grains, and staples; and the City of Edinburg, Texas, is requesting food and nonfood items for a Child and Adult Care Food Program serving 400 children daily. The code shows activity from state correctional agencies, state procurement offices acting on behalf of criminal justice or institutional buyers, municipal governments, and educational or youth-serving entities.

Geographic activity clusters in the South and West, with the most recent solicitations posted in Georgia, Oregon, and Texas between May and October 2026. Oregon's ODOC procurement (posted June 5, 2026, due June 19, 2026) applied a combined 10% evaluation preference for goods fabricated or processed in Oregon and for Oregon-headquartered bidders, with historical pricing at $0.493 per pound and delivery FOB destination to Salem within 45 days; the incumbent was Intersect USA. The Texas TDCJ IFB (posted May 4, 2026, extended via addendum to May 4, 2026, due 1:30 p.m. Central Time) specified six distribution points across Texas, FOB destination pricing, and awards made by single vendor per line item with a contract term through August 31, 2027, plus two optional one-year renewals. Georgia Correctional Industries' RFQ for kidney beans (posted October 2, 2026, due October 9, 2026) required electronic PDF submission and all-inclusive delivery pricing with no separate freight reimbursement. The code's nominal scope and actual recent purchasing activity are plainly misaligned; the UNSPSC classification appears to be a data-entry or system error rather than a reliable indicator of future procurement under this code.
