UNSPSC 50433905: Dried organic fuzzy/hairy melon

The variety of organic gourds known as organic fuzzy/hairy melon that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50433905 Dried organic fuzzy/hairy melon is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The solicitations in the dataset name kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans, and cafeteria food products—protein staples and institutional food supplies—rather than dried melons. The code shows little relevant recent activity, and the mismatch between the nominal commodity (dried organic fuzzy/hairy melon) and the work actually being solicited (dried commodity beans and broader food-service supplies) suggests either a tagging error in the procurement registry or dormant activity under this specific Commodity classification.

The issuing bodies represented in the dataset span state correctional and institutional agencies, a city school nutrition program, and a state department of corrections across Georgia, Texas, Oregon, and Illinois. Recent opportunities include Georgia Correctional Industries requesting 880-bag increments of kidney beans (RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026), the City of Edinburg, Texas, soliciting food and nonfood items for a Child and Adult Care Food Program serving 400 children (RFP 2026-017, due August 4, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections purchasing approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (S2910000017140, due June 19, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. PST with a 10% evaluation preference for goods fabricated or processed in Oregon), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issuing an IFB for cafeteria food products across five geographic distribution areas (304T26300CF, extended to May 4, 2026). Until the code's classification is clarified or activity under dried organic melons surfaces in future solicitations, pursuit should focus on verifying whether this Commodity code is actively used by state and local buyers.
