UNSPSC 50433600: Dried organic endives

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

UNSPSC 50433600 Dried organic endives, a Class code, shows no alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes dried organic endive products; however, the most recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code actually solicit broad food procurement spanning proteins, dairy, grains, fresh produce, eggs, and dried beans for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and child care operations. None of the posted solicitations reference dried endives or dried organic vegetables as a distinct category, and the sourcing pattern reflects commodity-level food service supply rather than specialty organic produce.

Recent activity concentrates in school district nutrition programs and state correctional and social service agencies across Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, and Oregon. Representative opportunities include the City of Edinburg, Texas CACFP Meal Program (RFP 2026017, due August 4, 2026) for beverages, paper goods, proteins, vegetables, and snacks serving 400 children; Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) for weekly delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Cafeteria Food Products procurement (IFB 304T-26-300CF, due May 4, 2026 following addendum extension) covering 382 line items including proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, and staples across five warehouse locations; and the Muscogee County School District fresh produce solicitation (ITB 26-017, due April 27, 2026) for approximately 60 produce line items. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two separate dried beans procurements (dried pinto and red beans in June 2026, and dried pinto beans in March 2026), each for quantities in the tens of thousands of pounds. Buyers are school districts, state corrections departments, and municipal child nutrition programs. The code does not currently support a viable business development focus on dried organic endives procurement.
