UNSPSC 50424111: Dried fenugreek

The variety of herbs known as fenugreek that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50424111 Dried fenugreek is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—spice ingredients for institutional food service—finds little grounding in state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code actually solicit broad food and consumable products for K–12 schools, correctional facilities, health and human services centers, and state supported living centers. Issuing bodies include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Douglas County School System in Georgia), state health and human services commissions and departments (Texas HHSC, Georgia), state departments of criminal justice (Texas TDCJ), and state purchasing offices acting on behalf of multiple agencies. The work being solicited is large-scale food service supply—groceries, fresh produce, proteins, frozen and specialty entrees, dairy, grains, condiments, and consumable items like food service gloves and containers—rather than specialty spice inputs. One procurement (Texas General Land Office, IW240463) appears unrelated to food service altogether and concerns water infrastructure.

Geographic activity clusters in Texas (multiple TDCJ and HHSC solicitations), Georgia (Douglas County School System RFPs and state procurement), Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools), Missouri (Rockwood School District), and Illinois (State of Illinois IVHQ weekly food order). Representative recent opportunities include Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 (IFB 2000004323, response due April 27, 2026), which establishes supply and delivery of grocery products to 45 schools plus distribution kitchens for the 2026–27 school year; Texas HHSC's supplemental food and consumables procurement (HHS0017449, response due July 13, 2026) covering the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million; Texas TDCJ's cafeteria food products solicitation (IFB 304T-26-300CF, extended response date May 4, 2026) for approximately 382 line items serving multiple warehouse locations; and Rockwood R-VI School District's child nutrition grocery items (response due April 29, 2026) encompassing over 900 line items serving approximately 6,900 lunch and 900 breakfast participants daily. The code shows no targeted recent activity specific to dried fenugreek as a discrete commodity.
