UNSPSC 50433609: Dried organic rossa di treviso endives

The variety of organic endives known as organic rossa di treviso endives that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50433609 Dried organic rossa di treviso endives is a Commodity code covering specialty produce items, though recent state and local opportunities show activity concentrated in institutional dried beans and bulk food products rather than the specific endive variety named in the code. State and local governments solicit under this code for large-volume food procurement supporting correctional facilities, schools, and child-care programs. Issuing bodies include state corrections departments, state purchasing divisions acting on behalf of criminal-justice agencies, school districts, municipal food-service programs, and regional food-distribution networks. The work involves bulk sourcing of staple and specialty dried goods meeting USDA grading standards, food-safety compliance (FDA, HACCP, Good Manufacturing Practice), and institutional meal-service delivery schedules.

Recent opportunities span Oregon, Georgia, Illinois, and Texas. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (bids due June 19, 2026) with 10% combined evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated and Oregon-headquartered vendors and delivery to its Central Distribution Center in Salem within 45 days; the historical incumbent price was $0.493 per pound. Georgia Correctional Industries requested kidney beans in 880-bag increments (bids due October 9, 2026) with delivery included in all-in pricing. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, issued Invitation for Bid 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products spanning approximately 382 line items (proteins, dairy, grains, vegetables, condiments) across five geographic warehouse areas with FOB Destination delivery to six TDCJ distribution points and an initial contract term through August 31, 2027 plus two optional one-year renewals. The City of Edinburg, Texas, sought CACFP meal-program supplies (beverages, paper goods, food, janitorial items, nonfood products) serving approximately 400 children daily with local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051 and daily deliveries required before noon. The State of Oregon also solicited dried black beans, triple-cleaned, meeting USDA grading standards for institutional use (bids due August 21, 2026).
