UNSPSC 50432100: Dried organic brussel sprouts

The type of organic vegetable known as organic brussel sprouts that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50432100 Dried organic brussel sprouts, a Class code, does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code cover dried beans (kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans), institutional food supplies for correctional facilities and child nutrition programs, and cafeteria food products — none of which are organic brussel sprouts. State and local procurement offices are using this code to tag solicitations for bulk dried legumes and institutional food procurement, primarily for correctional facilities, state agencies, and child nutrition programs, but the code's nominal scope bears no relation to the current buying activity. The issuing bodies span state correctional departments (Georgia Correctional Industries, Oregon Department of Corrections), state purchasing divisions (Texas Comptroller's office procuring for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State of Illinois), and municipal entities (City of Edinburg, Texas).

Recent opportunities show geographic spread across Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Illinois. Representative solicitations include the Georgia Correctional Industries RFQ for kidney beans (due October 9, 2026) requiring 880-bag increments with all-inclusive delivered pricing; the Oregon Department of Corrections bid for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (due June 19, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. PST) with a combined 10% preference for Oregon-fabricated and Oregon-headquartered vendors, FOB destination to Salem, and a historical price of $0.493 per pound; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB for cafeteria food products across five geographic areas covering 382 line items from proteins to condiments (extended to May 4, 2026, via Addendum No. 2); and the City of Edinburg RFP for Child and Adult Care Food Program supplies serving 400 children daily under a local-vendor preference within 5% of lowest bid. The code shows active procurement but represents a mismatch between the taxonomy label and actual buying patterns, suggesting either classification drift or a data-entry error in the state and local procurement systems.
