UNSPSC 50433910: Dried organic tinda gourds

The variety of organic gourds known as organic tinda gourds that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50433910 Dried organic tinda gourds is a Commodity code that does not reflect the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it; the source shows no solicitations for dried tinda gourds, and the code does not align with the food categories actually being purchased. Recent opportunities under this code designation span broad food service procurement including fresh produce, dried legumes, grocery staples, and food service supplies for school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and child care operations, but dried tinda gourds do not appear in any of the posted solicitations. The mismatch suggests either a tagging or classification error in the source data or that this particular commodity (dried tinda gourds) is not currently being solicited by state and local agencies in the recent sample.

State and local agencies posting under this code include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Muscogee County School District, Douglas County School System), state departments and purchasing divisions (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), and city governments (City of Edinburg, Texas). Procurement activity concentrates in school nutrition programs and institutional food service for corrections facilities, with representative recent opportunities including the Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 IFB (due April 27, 2026, for weekly deliveries to 45 schools), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products IFB (extended to May 4, 2026, covering 382 line items across multiple food categories), the Rockwood R-VI School District grocery items bid (due April 29, 2026, for 900+ line items), and the Oregon Department of Corrections dried pinto beans ITB (due June 19, 2026, for 42,500 pounds). Geographic activity spans Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, Virginia, and Illinois, with school districts and state facilities representing the primary buying base. The recent activity tagged to this code does not substantiate a meaningful procurement category under the dried tinda gourds designation.
