UNSPSC 50425907: Dried hative de niort shallots

The variety of shallots known as hative de niort shallots that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50425907 Dried native de Niort shallots is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope addresses a specialized dried vegetable product, but the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations specifically requesting dried shallots or products matching this description; instead, the tagged opportunities span broad food supply, produce, and grocery procurement across school districts, corrections departments, and municipal nutrition programs—work that falls under related but distinct commodity codes for dried beans, fresh produce, and general food products. The issuing bodies active in the recent opportunities include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois state procurement, State of Georgia), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri; Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), a municipal purchasing office (City of Edinburg, Texas), and a cooperative procurement vehicle serving multiple school districts (GEC Buying Cooperative). Texas and Georgia dominate recent activity, with secondary activity in Virginia, Missouri, and Oregon.

The recent opportunities reveal that state and local governments currently procure dried legumes (pinto and red beans at ODOC and TDCJ), fresh produce (across multiple school districts and Georgia state operations), and bundled grocery and food service supply contracts supporting school nutrition and corrections food services—not the specialized shallot product this code nominates. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued an ITB on March 6, 2026 (response due March 20, 2026) for approximately 127,500 pounds of dried pinto beans; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice procured cafeteria food products via IFB 304T-26-300CF with response due May 4, 2026; Fairfax County Public Schools released IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 on April 6, 2026 (response due April 27, 2026); and the Douglas County School System issued RFP SN 26-004 on February 4, 2026 (response due March 4, 2026) for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million combined. The code shows no active procurement for dried shallots specifically, indicating either that this commodity is not currently being solicited or that opportunities tagged to this code are misclassified.
