UNSPSC 50432501: Dried organic amsterdam carrots

The variety of organic carrots known as organic amsterdam carrots that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50432501 Dried organic amsterdam carrots is a Commodity code that nominally covers organic carrot products, but recent state and local opportunities under this code show little alignment with that scope. The handful of recent solicitations instead target dried beans—kidney beans, pinto beans, red beans, and black beans—procured in bulk for institutional food service, correctional facilities, and child care programs. Georgia Correctional Industries, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the State of Illinois, and the City of Edinburg, Texas, have all posted procurement notices for dried legumes rather than carrots. The code appears to function as a catch-all for dried vegetable and legume commodities within institutional procurement systems, though the mismatch between the code's nominal name and actual purchasing activity suggests a tagging inconsistency in state procurement registries.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections posted a bid for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (S2910000017140, IFB, due June 19, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. PST) with a combined 10% evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-headquartered suppliers; the historical purchase price was $0.493 per pound from incumbent Intersect USA. Georgia Correctional Industries issued an RFQ for kidney beans in increments of 880 bags (92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026), requiring all-inclusive pricing with no separate freight reimbursement. The City of Edinburg, Texas, solicited food and nonfood items including dried beans as part of a CACFP meal program serving 400 children (RFP2026017, due August 4, 2026), weighted 30% on cost, 25% on qualifications, 25% on technical approach, and 20% on menu quality and nutritional value. The State of Oregon also posted a separate bid for triple-cleaned dried black beans (S2910000017705, due August 21, 2026) for institutional use. Set-asides and preferences vary by jurisdiction—Oregon applies evaluation preferences for in-state sourcing and manufacturing; Texas applies local-vendor preference under Government Code Section 271.9051; Georgia imposes strict specification-sheet compliance and communication restrictions.
