UNSPSC 50426410: Dried grape tomatoes

The variety of tomatoes known as grape tomatoes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50426410 Dried grape tomatoes (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity under its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code predominantly solicit dried beans of various types—kidney beans, black beans, and pinto/red beans—rather than dried grape tomatoes, indicating either a data-classification mismatch or a very narrow functional overlap within institutional food procurement. The work actually being solicited consists of bulk dried legumes for state correctional facilities, institutional meal programs, and food-service operations serving hundreds of daily diners; specifications emphasize USDA grading standards, triple-cleaning, moisture content, foreign-material limits, and compliance with FDA, USDA HACCP, and Good Manufacturing Practice requirements. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections (Oregon, Georgia), a state comptroller's office procuring on behalf of a state department of criminal justice (Texas), and municipal and local meal-program entities (City of Edinburg, Texas, and the Boys & Girls Club).

Geographic concentration is strongest in the Pacific Northwest and South. Oregon's Department of Corrections is a repeat buyer, with two recent solicitations for dried beans totaling approximately 42,500 pounds of pinto and red beans (due June 19, 2026, with a 10% Oregon-preference evaluation bonus) and unspecified quantities of triple-cleaned black beans (due August 21, 2026). Georgia Correctional Industries posted an RFQ for kidney beans in 880-bag increments due October 9, 2026; the City of Edinburg, Texas, issued RFP 2026-017 for Child and Adult Care Food Program supplies including dried proteins due August 4, 2026, with local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051; and the Texas Comptroller, procuring on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, issued IFB 304T26300CF for cafeteria food products across five Texas geographic areas with response deadline extended to May 4, 2026. The Oregon ODOC's June 2026 solicitation named incumbent Intersect USA at $0.493 per pound (August 2025 historical price). Given the code's apparent misalignment with recent solicitation activity, pursuit decisions should center on whether your firm's dried legume capability and food-service institutional experience offset the code's nominal scope mismatch.
