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 with little documented recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a narrow product category — dried, organic carrots of a specific variety — yet the recent opportunities tagged to it do not align with that scope. State and local governments procuring under this code are instead buying broad food-service supplies, including dried beans, fresh produce, and cafeteria items in bulk, often across multiple categories in single solicitations. The issuing bodies span school districts (Rockwood R-VI, Fairfax County Public Schools, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, and Douglas County in Georgia), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state agencies (Illinois, Georgia), and municipalities (City of Edinburg, Texas). School nutrition programs and institutional food service represent the dominant customer base.

Geographic concentration is heaviest in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with additional activity in Virginia, Missouri, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's Invitation for Bid for cafeteria food products across five geographic areas (due May 4, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (due June 19, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract covering food delivery to 45 schools (due April 27, 2026). The Commodity code appears to function as a catch-all tag for food-service procurement rather than a precise match to dried organic carrot specifications, suggesting the code's utility for vendors in this space depends on monitoring broader school nutrition and institutional cafeteria solicitations rather than organic-vegetable-specific opportunities.
