UNSPSC 50423810: Dried spanish morado garlic

The variety of garlic known as spanish morado garlic that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50423810 Dried Spanish Morado Garlic (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code appears in a source block that includes six recent opportunities, but only one addresses dried garlic; the remaining five solicitations target kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans, and broad food-supply categories unrelated to garlic. The single garlic-specific record lacks detail on issuing body, solicitation type, response date, or geographic location, rendering it unusable for meaningful market characterization.

State and local governments buying under codes in this family are primarily correctional facilities, child nutrition programs, and institutional food services across Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois—jurisdictions sourcing bulk dried legumes and shelf-stable proteins for inmate meals, CACFP (Child and Adult Care Food Program) operations, and cafeteria operations. The issuing bodies include state departments of corrections, state purchasing offices, cities, and regional institutional networks. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' June 2026 bid for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (IFB, due June 19, 2026 with a 10% Oregon-origin preference), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's May 2026 Invitation for Bid for cafeteria food products across multiple warehouses (IFB 304T-26-300CF, extended to May 4, 2026), and the City of Edinburg, Texas's August 2026 RFP for Child and Adult Care Food Program supplies including proteins, beverages, and janitorial items (RFP 2026-017, due August 4, 2026 with a local-vendor preference). The code's narrower scope—dried Spanish morado garlic specifically—does not align with recent institutional procurement patterns, which cluster around larger-volume dried legumes and multisource food bundles rather than specialty garlic products.
