UNSPSC 50425501: Dried ajies peppers

The variety of peppers known as ajies peppers that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50425501 Dried ajies peppers is a Commodity code, but recent state and local solicitations show little activity aligned with this specific product — the most recent opportunities are requesting dried kidney beans, dried black beans, dried pinto and red beans, and broader food-supply categories for correctional facilities, child-care food programs, and state institutional kitchens, none of which involve ajies peppers. The code's nominal scope is narrow (a single dried-pepper variety), whereas state and local procurement offices are soliciting dried legumes and mixed food categories at institutional scale, driven by meal-service operations in correctional systems, schools, and state agencies.

State and local buyers soliciting under dried-food categories include Georgia Correctional Industries, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, the City of Edinburg (Boys & Girls Club), and the State of Illinois. The geographic spread across recent opportunities spans Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois. Representative solicitations include Georgia Correctional Industries requesting kidney beans (IFB, due October 9, 2026, with deliveries in 880-bag increments); the City of Edinburg requesting CACFP meal-program supplies including food products for approximately 400 children daily (RFP 2026-017, due August 4, 2026); the Oregon Department of Corrections requesting approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans meeting U.S. No. 2 or better grade standards (bid due June 19, 2026, through OregonBuys, with historical pricing of $0.493 per pound); and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice requesting cafeteria food products across approximately 382 line items spanning proteins, grains, and staples for delivery to six distribution points (IFB 304T-26-300CF, extended to May 4, 2026). The code shows no relevant recent activity tied specifically to dried ajies peppers.
