UNSPSC 50424404: Dried cortina leeks

The variety of leeks known as cortina leeks that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50424404 Dried cortina leeks is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with the code's nominal scope. The recent opportunities in the source are tagged under this code but predominantly solicit broad food and grocery categories—fresh produce, dried beans and pinto beans, cafeteria food products, school nutrition supplies, and child nutrition services—rather than the specific dried cortina leek product the code names. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this tag include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), state departments and corrections agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice via the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), a municipal nutrition program (City of Edinburg, Texas), and an interstate education cooperative (GEC Buying Cooperative). School districts and corrections departments appear most frequently, typically bundling dried cortina leeks with broader grocery procurement when the code applies.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Oregon, and Virginia, with Georgia school districts (Douglas County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County) generating multiple solicitations. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00016233 for approximately 127,500 pounds of dried pinto beans due March 20, 2026, the City of Edinburg, Texas's RFP 2026-017 for CACFP Meal Program food and nonfood items with response due August 4, 2026, and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 with bids due April 27, 2026. The code itself does not appear to drive procurement volume; rather, dried cortina leeks would be one line item within much larger grocery or food-supply contracts centered on commodity staples, produce, proteins, and prepared entrees. No standalone solicitations for dried cortina leeks have been posted in the recent-opportunities block.
