UNSPSC 50425513: Dried anaheim peppers

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

UNSPSC 50425513 Dried anaheim peppers is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of state and local food procurement activity visible in recent opportunities. The recent solicitations tagged to this code involve broad food supply contracts for school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and child care operations — spanning fresh produce, proteins, dairy, grains, beverages, and staple items — rather than dried anaheim peppers specifically. The issuing bodies are school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Douglas County School System in Georgia), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state purchasing offices (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of TDCJ; State of Illinois; State of Georgia), and municipal child care programs (City of Edinburg, Texas). No recent opportunities specifically solicit dried anaheim peppers; the code appears to be a tagging mismatch in the source data.

The most concrete representative opportunities involve school nutrition supply contracts. Fairfax County Public Schools issued IFB 2000004323 on April 6, 2026, with sealed bids due April 27, 2026, for a master grocery K-12 term contract supplying 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus seven distribution kitchens across the district for July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, with renewal options. Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri posted its Child Nutrition Services Grocery Items 2026-2027 solicitation on March 31, 2026, with electronic bids due April 29, 2026, covering over 900 line items for approximately 6,900 daily lunch and 900 breakfast participants. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S-29100-00016233 in March 2026 for 127,500 pounds of dried pinto beans and a follow-up ITB in June 2026 for 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans, both with responses due in-quarter. Douglas County School System posted RFP SN 26-004 on February 4, 2026, coordinated through the GEC Buying Cooperative, with proposals due March 4, 2026, covering fresh produce and eggs for 30 school districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million and $1.1 million across two areas. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Virginia, Missouri, and Oregon, with school districts and state agencies as the dominant buyers. The code as currently tagged does not support a reliable market signal for dried anaheim peppers procurement.
