UNSPSC 50432004: Dried organic chinese broccoli

The variety of organic broccoli known as organic chinese broccoli that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50432004 Dried organic chinese broccoli is a Commodity code that in practice encompasses bulk dried legumes and institutional food staples procured by state correctional systems, child nutrition programs, and other public food-service operations. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily purchasing dried beans, pinto beans, black beans, kidney beans, and other preserved proteins in bulk quantities for kitchen operations serving incarcerated populations, school-age children, and other institutional populations. The issuing bodies are state departments of corrections, state purchasing offices, municipal nutrition programs, and regional food-service operations; no private vendors or market-driven commercial buyers appear in the recent record. The scope is institutional bulk procurement with strict USDA grading, food-safety compliance, triple-cleaning specifications, and delivery to central distribution points or food-preparation facilities on a fixed schedule.

Recent activity concentrates in the South and Pacific Northwest.
