UNSPSC 50423518: Dried thai eggplants

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

UNSPSC 50423518 Dried Thai Eggplants is a Commodity code, but state and local governments show little recent procurement activity under this code. The most recent opportunities posted to state and local procurement registries focus instead on other dried legumes — kidney beans, pinto beans, black beans, and red beans — procured by state correctional and food-service agencies for institutional meal preparation, not dried eggplants. The code's nominal scope does not align with the work actually being solicited in the available record, suggesting that either the code is rarely used by state and local buyers or that opportunities under it are not regularly posted to tracked registries.

The issuing bodies in the recent record are correctional departments (Georgia Correctional Industries, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice) and municipal food programs (City of Edinburg, Texas; Illinois state agencies; Georgia state purchasing) procuring dried legumes in bulk for institutional kitchens. Georgia Correctional Industries solicited kidney beans in increments of 880 bags with delivery by October 9, 2026 (RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027); the Oregon Department of Corrections procured approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans with bids due June 19, 2026, including a 10% evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-headquartered bidders; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice solicited cafeteria food products across multiple line items including dried legumes with the final response due May 4, 2026 via Addendum No. 2. Geographic activity centers on Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with secondary activity in Illinois. No representative recent opportunities specifically for dried Thai eggplants are present in the source.
