UNSPSC 50424114: Dried mint

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

UNSPSC 50424114 Dried mint is a Commodity code covering shelf-stable culinary and food-service ingredients that state and local governments procure as components of larger food-service and institutional grocery contracts. Recent solicitations show this code appearing within broader food-service procurements for state supported living centers, correctional facilities, county social services, and state institutions rather than as a standalone line item; dried mint and similar dried herbs and spices are typically bundled into multi-line food and consumable product bids. The issuing bodies span state health and human services commissions (Texas HHSC, Georgia), state comptroller offices procuring on behalf of correctional departments (Texas TDCJ), county purchasing divisions (Gwinnett County, Georgia), and state facilities operations (Illinois). Procurement volumes and line-item emphasis vary by facility type and mission, with state supported living centers and correctional warehouses representing the largest institutional buyers in the recent record.

The code shows activity concentrated in Texas and Georgia, with secondary activity in Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0016792V2 for supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and state supported living centers statewide, posted May 19, 2026 with responses due March 19, 2026, covering 210 line items of fresh, frozen, dry, and refrigerated products including condiments and spices; the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products to supply multiple TDCJ warehouse locations across five geographic areas, posted May 4, 2026 with responses due May 4, 2026, covering approximately 382 line items with detailed packaging specifications; and Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for the Department of Community Services, posted October 13, 2026 with quotes due October 19, 2026. Contract values in these procurements range from historical guidelines of $158,000 to $1.5 million annually for individual facilities, with the HHSC supplemental food contract carrying a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years including renewal options.
