UNSPSC 50433602: Dried organic castelfranco endives

The variety of organic endives known as organic castelfranco endives that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50433602 Dried organic castelfranco endives is a Commodity code that captures specialized produce procurement within state and local food service operations, though recent solicitations show minimal direct activity under this code. State and local governments procure dried organic castelfranco endives—if at all—as components of broader fresh or processed produce supply contracts for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and child care operations. The actual procurement activity under this code remains sparse; solicitations in the recent pipeline target conventional dried staples (pinto and red beans) and fresh produce categories rather than specialty greens like castelfranco endives.

Recent opportunities across state and local jurisdictions focus on mainstream produce and grocery items for institutional food service. The Oregon Department of Corrections posted two separate bids for dried pinto and red beans (approximately 42,500 pounds in one round and 127,500 pounds in another), with response dates of March 20 and June 19, 2026 under the OregonBuys system. Multiple school districts—including Rockwood R-VI in Missouri (approximately 900 line items for 2026–27, response due April 29, 2026), Muscogee County in Georgia (approximately 60 produce line items, bid due April 27, 2026), Savannah-Chatham in Georgia (72 fresh produce items, sealed bid due April 23, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia (Master Grocery K-12 covering 45 schools, response deadline April 27, 2026)—solicited broad grocery and produce supply. The City of Edinburg, Texas Child and Adult Care Food Program requested proposals for five supply categories including food products for 400 children ages 1–18, with a local-vendor preference and a response deadline of August 4, 2026. The source shows no recent procurement activity specifically targeting dried organic castelfranco endives, and the code does not align with the commodity focus of current state and local food service operations.
