UNSPSC 50431504: Dried organic green globe artichokes

The variety of organic artichokes known as organic green globe artichokes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50431504 Dried organic green globe artichokes, a Commodity code, sees little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for the code's nominal product; instead, the indexed opportunities span kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans, and broader food-supply categories for correctional facilities, school meal programs, and state institutions. State and local governments acquire dried beans and institutional food products through issuing bodies that include state correctional agencies, state departments of corrections, state purchasing offices, city governments, and school districts. The actual procurement activity under related dried-bean codes emphasizes bulk institutional supply — frozen and dried proteins, grains, and staples for cafeteria and correctional-kitchen operations — rather than specialty organic produce items.

The geographic spread of indexed dried-bean activity centers on Oregon (State Department of Corrections, OregonBuys system), Georgia (Georgia Correctional Industries, State Purchasing), Texas (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Statewide Procurement Division), and Illinois (FY-27 IVHQ weekly food orders). Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' June 2026 IFB for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (S2910000017140, due June 19, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. PST, with a combined 10% in-state preference applied at evaluation) and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's May 2026 IFB for cafeteria food products spanning 382 line items including proteins, dairy, grains, and vegetables across five geographic areas (304T26300CF, response deadline extended via addendum to May 4, 2026 at 1:30 p.m. Central Time). The code itself shows no current state or local solicitation activity; business development should monitor dried-bean and institutional-food-supply codes with actual recent postings rather than pursue 50431504 in isolation.
