UNSPSC 50424004: Dried snow peas

The variety of green peas known as snow peas that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50424004 Dried snow peas is a Commodity code. State and local governments procuring under this code are buying food products for institutional food service, though recent solicitations show minimal activity specific to dried snow peas themselves. The code sits within a broader food procurement context where jurisdictions source diverse meal components—proteins, vegetables, fruits, grains, dairy, and prepared items—to support child nutrition programs, school districts, correctional facilities, and other public food service operations. Issuing bodies range across state departments of corrections, county and city school districts, and municipal child nutrition programs. The mix includes large districts such as Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, and Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools in Georgia; smaller jurisdictions such as the City of Edinburg, Texas; and state-level buyers including the Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Most recent procurement activity centers on master grocery contracts, fresh produce supply agreements, and general food product sourcing rather than dried snow peas as a line item.

Recent opportunities span Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, and Oregon. The City of Edinburg, Texas issued RFP 2026-017 on July 16, 2026, for a Child and Adult Care Food Program meal service covering beverages, paper goods, food products, janitorial supplies, and nonfood items with proposals due August 4, 2026; the procurement weights cost at 30 percent and qualifications, technical approach, and menu quality at 75 percent combined. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S-29100-00016233 on March 6, 2026, for 127,500 pounds of dried pinto beans with a March 20, 2026 response deadline, applying a combined 10 percent evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated goods and Oregon-headquartered bidders. Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia posted IFB 2000004323 on April 6, 2026, for a Master Grocery K-12 term contract spanning July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with a four-year renewal option, requiring bidders to demonstrate three years of business and food delivery experience and bid a minimum of 76 items, with bids due April 27, 2026. School districts in Georgia—including Douglas County School System, Muscogee County School District, and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System—solicited fresh produce contracts through February to April 2026 with annual estimated values from $1.1 million to $4.4 million, typically awarded on a line-item basis to multiple vendors based on lowest qualified pricing.
