UNSPSC 50424108: Dried curry leaves

The variety of herbs known as curry leaves that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50424108 Dried curry leaves is a Commodity-tier code that, according to recent state and local solicitations, sees little direct demand specifically for dried curry leaves. Instead, the code appears under broader food procurement notices that source generic shelf-stable groceries, proteins, frozen items, and consumable supplies for institutional food service operations across correctional facilities, state-supported living centers, senior services, and cafeteria operations. The actual buying under this code encompasses multi-item food service contracts where dried curry leaves, if present at all, represent a single line item within dozens or hundreds of others spanning canned vegetables, proteins, dairy, grains, beverages, and condiments. Issuing bodies include state health and human services commissions, state comptroller divisions procuring on behalf of correctional or human services agencies, county governments, and state facilities. Texas Health and Human Services Commission dominates recent activity, issuing multiple IFBs for food and consumable products across state-supported living centers and facilities statewide.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued five IFBs between May and August 2026 covering food and consumable products for Mexia and El Paso State Supported Living Centers and statewide state hospitals and living centers, with response dates ranging from July 11 to August 25, 2026 and historical contract values of $158,000 to $1.5 million per facility-year. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia solicited approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, canned vegetables) via IWQ 140229 with quotes due October 19, 2026 for delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five TDCJ warehouse locations with approximately 382 line items, response due May 4, 2026. The State of Illinois and State of Georgia each issued one food supply solicitation in May and June 2026. Procurement under this code moves through IFB, RFQ, and informal quote processes with firm fixed unit pricing, brand-specific or approved-equivalent requirements, delivery-focused compliance, and award based on best value or lowest responsive and responsible bidder.
