UNSPSC 50432602: Dried organic alverda cauliflowers

The variety of organic cauliflower known as organic alverda cauliflowers that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50432602 Dried organic alverda cauliflowers is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this designation do not reflect dried cauliflower procurement; instead, they document purchases of dried beans, fresh vegetables, and multi-category food and kitchen products for institutional meal programs. Georgia Correctional Industries issued a request for bids on kidney beans (RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026); the City of Edinburg, Texas, solicited proposals for a Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) meal supply spanning beverages, paper goods, food products, janitorial supplies, and nonfood items (RFP 2026-017, due August 11, 2026); Oregon posted specifications for dried black beans triple-cleaned and dried pinto and red beans (bids due August 21 and June 19, 2026, respectively); Illinois solicited weekly food order fulfillment for the July-September quarter (IFB due June 26, 2026); Georgia requested food, supplies, and other kitchen products (bid due June 22, 2026); and Texas issued a procurement for cafeteria food products spanning proteins, dairy, grains, vegetables, fruits, and staple items across five geographic areas (IFB 304T-26-300CF, due May 4, 2026, extended via Addendum No. 2). The issuing bodies reflect a mix of state correctional and educational agencies, municipal food programs serving children and families, and state purchasing divisions coordinating multi-warehouse supply.

The code shows recent activity across Georgia, Texas, Oregon, and Illinois. Oregon's Department of Corrections issued two dried-bean solicitations with state and Oregon-headquartered vendor preferences totaling approximately 42,500 pounds of pinto and red beans at a historical price of $0.493 per pound; Texas TDCJ's cafeteria-food procurement encompasses 382 line items with FOB destination delivery to six distribution points and a contract term through August 31, 2027 with two optional one-year renewals; Georgia Correctional Industries specified kidney beans in increments of 880 bags with all-inclusive delivery pricing; and the Edinburg CACFP program applied a local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051 for suppliers within the city limits. Delivery requirements are strict across all opportunities—daily service before noon for meal programs, palletized shipments to central distribution points, and FOB destination terms with no separate freight reimbursement. The code shows little recent activity in dried organic cauliflower specifically, signaling a mismatch between the nominal code designation and actual institutional procurement patterns in state and local food supply.
