UNSPSC 50424305: Dried rowel trero kohlrabi

The variety of kohlrabi known as rowel trero kohlrabi that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50424305 Dried rowel trero kohlrabi is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not solicit dried kohlrabi; instead, they procure dried beans and broader institutional food supplies. Georgia Correctional Industries is requesting kidney beans in increments of 880 bags with delivery included in all-inclusive pricing and a response deadline of October 9, 2026; the Oregon Department of Corrections seeks approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans, triple-cleaned to U.S. No. 2 or better grade, FOB destination to Salem with a June 19, 2026 due date; and the State of Oregon posted a separate solicitation for dried black beans, triple-cleaned, with proposals due August 21, 2026. A broader City of Edinburg, Texas RFP for a Child and Adult Care Food Program solicits food and nonfood items including beverages, paper goods, proteins, cheese, breads, fruits, vegetables, snacks, janitorial supplies, and storage products for approximately 400 children daily, with daily deliveries required Monday through Friday before noon and evaluation weighted 30 percent on cost, 25 percent on qualifications, 25 percent on technical approach, and 20 percent on menu quality. State departments, correctional authorities, and municipalities are the primary issuing bodies, with Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois represented in the recent opportunities.

Activity concentrates in the Pacific Northwest and South. The Oregon Department of Corrections procurement applies a combined 10 percent evaluation preference for goods fabricated or processed entirely in Oregon (5 percent) and for bidders headquartered in Oregon (5 percent), with the historical purchase price at $0.493 per pound as of August 2025 from incumbent Intersect USA; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Statewide Procurement Division, through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, solicited cafeteria food products across five geographic areas via IFB No. 304T-26-300CF with an original response due date of April 21, 2026 extended by Addendum No. 2 to May 4, 2026 at 1:30 p.m. Central Time, covering approximately 382 line items with a contract term through August 31, 2027 and two optional one-year renewals. The City of Edinburg RFP (posted August 11, 2026, proposals due August 4, 2026) applies a local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051 for City of Edinburg vendors within 5 percent of the lowest bid price, with bidders required to price all five supply categories for 400 children over 20 days per month for 9 months and daily Monday-through-Friday deliveries before noon. The mismatch between the nominal commodity (dried kohlrabi) and actual solicitations (dried beans and broader food supply) suggests the code assignment may not reflect current procurement practice.
