UNSPSC 50426413: Dried marvel striped traditional tomatoes

The variety of tomatoes known as marvel striped traditional tomatoes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50426413 Dried marvel striped traditional tomatoes, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent alignment with state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code span dried beans—kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans—and broader institutional food procurement, not dried tomatoes. Georgia Correctional Industries is requesting bids for kidney beans (880-bag increments, due October 9, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections is soliciting approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (due June 19, 2026, with 10% Oregon-preference evaluation), and the State of Oregon issued a separate bid for triple-cleaned dried black beans (due August 21, 2026). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products spanning 382 line items including proteins, grains, dairy, and beverages across five geographic TDCJ warehouse locations (response due May 4, 2026, extended via Addendum No. 2). The City of Edinburg, Texas, and the State of Illinois have also posted food-service solicitations covering multiple supply categories rather than a single dried-commodity line.

The issuing bodies are predominantly state correctional and food-service departments, with activity concentrated in Oregon, Georgia, Texas, and Illinois. Oregon's ODOC procurement reflects established institutional demand—the historical price was $0.493 per pound in August 2025 from incumbent Intersect USA, and ODOC applies a combined 10% evaluation preference for Oregon fabrication or processing and Oregon headquarters. The Texas TDCJ solicitation reflects similar scale and complexity, with detailed USDA grade specifications, FOB destination delivery to multiple distribution centers, and firm pricing incorporating all shipping and fuel surcharges. Georgia Correctional Industries and the City of Edinburg's CACFP program represent additional institutional buyers, though neither posting specifically references dried tomatoes. The code itself appears misaligned with current procurement activity—the recent opportunities demonstrate strong recurring demand for dried legumes and institutional food services, but no posted solicitations explicitly match the dried-tomato commodity description.
