UNSPSC 50423513: Dried moneymaker eggplants

The variety of eggplants known as moneymaker eggplants that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50423513 Dried moneymaker eggplants is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The six most recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code procure dried beans (kidney beans, pinto, red, and black), institutional food supplies for cafeteria and correctional-facility operations, and child-care meal program components—none of which align with the code's nominal scope of dried eggplants. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in state procurement systems or that the code is not actively used for its intended commodity. State and local buyers pursuing these opportunities include Georgia Correctional Industries, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, the State of Illinois, the City of Edinburg, Texas, and the State of Georgia—primarily correctional systems, state purchasing offices, and municipalities sourcing food for institutional meal service.

Recent opportunities span Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections sought approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (bid due June 19, 2026) with a 10% evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated and Oregon-headquartered suppliers; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued an IFB for cafeteria food products including proteins, dairy, grains, and condiments across five geographic warehouse locations (response due May 4, 2026 as extended); Georgia Correctional Industries requested kidney beans in increments of 880 bags (response due October 9, 2026); and the City of Edinburg, Texas, solicited food and nonfood items for a Child and Adult Care Food Program serving approximately 400 children daily (response due August 4, 2026). Given the code's apparent disuse for its stated commodity, business development professionals should verify the actual buying pattern before investing pursuit resources or assume that relevant opportunities are tagged under different dried-vegetable or commodity codes.
