UNSPSC 50425815: Dried susabi nori

The variety of sea vegetables known as susabi nori that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50425815 Dried susabi nori (Commodity) does not see meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code appears rarely or with minimal relevance in current opportunities tracked by state and local procurement offices.

The most recent records tagged to this code include a Texas school nutrition RFP soliciting general groceries for a CACFP meal program, an Illinois institutional food order, and multiple dried-bean and fresh-produce procurements from Oregon corrections, Georgia and Texas departments, and school districts across Missouri, Georgia, and Virginia. None of these opportunities specifically reference nori or seaweed products. Dried pinto and red beans, fresh produce, dairy, proteins, and institutional grocery staples dominate the recent activity pool. The code's assignment to broad institutional food-service solicitations suggests either misclassification in source systems or minimal actual demand for nori within state and local procurement channels. Geographic spread across recent activity spans Texas, Illinois, Oregon, Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia, but the opportunities reflect general meal-service and grocery supply contracting rather than specialty dried-seaweed sourcing. Issuers range from school nutrition services (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County) to corrections and state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Georgia, Illinois), with school districts and corrections facilities representing the dominant buyer segment. The absence of nori-specific RFPs, RFQs, or ITBs in this recent window suggests the code carries limited pursuit opportunity under current state and local contracting activity.
