UNSPSC 50426823: Dried dau mue or pea tips

The type of vegetable known as dau mue or pea tips that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50426823 Dried dau mue or pea tips (Commodity) shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not solicit dried pea tips or dau mue; instead, they reflect broader food procurement across fresh produce, dried beans, grocery staples, and food service supply. The City of Edinburg, Texas, CACFP Meal Program solicitation (RFP2026017, due August 4, 2026) requests vegetables and snacks as part of a five-category supply package, but does not specify pea tips. The Oregon Department of Corrections has issued two separate ITBs for dried pinto and red beans (S2910000017140, due June 19, 2026; S2910000016233, due March 20, 2026), which represent the dried legume category but differ from pea tips. Georgia, Texas, Illinois, and Missouri have posted multiple fresh-produce and grocery-staple procurements serving school districts, correctional systems, and child nutrition programs, but none explicitly reference dried pea tips as a line item or procurement priority.

The issuing-body mix across recent opportunities spans state corrections departments (Oregon), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Muscogee County, Rockwood R-VI, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County), city government (Edinburg), state agencies (Georgia, Illinois, Texas), and multi-district cooperative purchasing vehicles. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia, Texas, and the Pacific Northwest, with secondary activity in Missouri and Virginia. The absence of dried pea tips from recent solicitations despite the UNSPSC code's specificity suggests either low demand, alternative categorization by procuring agencies, or sourcing through broader commodity contracts rather than direct line-item solicitations. Firms pursuing this code should verify whether state and local nutrition programs are currently specifying this product or whether it is absorbed into generic fresh-vegetable or snack line items under different codes.
