UNSPSC 50432402: Dried organic gobbi cardoons

The variety of organic cardoons known as organic gobbi cardoons that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50432402 Dried organic gobbi cardoons is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to its narrow scope. The code describes a specialized dried vegetable product with limited commercial application in public-sector food service. Recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect procurement for dried organic gobbi cardoons specifically; instead, the opportunities span broad food supply and nutrition services, including fresh produce (apples, bananas, carrots, leafy greens, citrus), dried beans (pinto and red varieties), cafeteria staples (proteins, grains, dairy, beverages), and grocery items supporting school nutrition and corrections food service.

State and local buyers using broader food procurement codes—such as school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Douglas County School System in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Muscogee County School District in Georgia), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state agencies (State of Illinois, State of Georgia), cities (City of Edinburg, Texas), and special-purpose food programs (CACFP)—are actively soliciting for general grocery and produce supply. Recent opportunities include Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB (April 2026, responses due April 27), Rockwood R-VI School District's Child Nutrition Services Grocery Items IFB (March 2026, responses due April 29), Douglas County School System's Fresh Produce and Eggs RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative (February 2026, responses due March 4), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Cafeteria Food Products IFB (May 2026, responses extended to May 4), and the City of Edinburg CACFP Meal Program RFP (July 2026, responses due August 4). Geographically, recent activity is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, Virginia, Missouri, and Oregon. The code shows no documented procurement specifically for dried organic gobbi cardoons in the most recent state and local opportunities block, indicating this commodity sits outside current public-sector purchasing patterns.
