UNSPSC 50425910: Dried sante shallots

The variety of shallots known as sante shallots that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50425910 Dried sante shallots (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code. The most recent opportunities posted under the code solicit dried beans—kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans—and broader food-service supply bundles for institutional meal programs, not shallots. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the sourcing system or that this specific commodity code has seen no recent relevant activity.

State and local governments do actively procure dried beans and institutional food products through RFQ, IFB, and RFP processes across multiple issuing bodies including state correctional departments (Georgia Correctional Industries, Oregon Department of Corrections), state procurement divisions (Oregon, Illinois, Georgia, Texas), and municipal school and child-care food programs (City of Edinburg, Texas). Recent solicitations span Georgia (kidney beans RFQ, October 2026; food supplies RFQ, June 2026), Oregon (dried black beans RFQ, August 2026; pinto and red beans RFQ with Oregon preference weighting, June 2026), Texas (TDCJ cafeteria food products IFB, May 2026; CACFP meal program RFP for the City of Edinburg, August 2026), and Illinois (quarterly food order, June 2026). The institutional food category shows steady demand with multi-month contracts, FOB delivery requirements, USDA grade compliance, and local or in-state vendor preferences where applicable. Until the code is corrected or recent opportunities under 50425910 specifically target dried shallots, treat this code as inactive for business development purposes.
