UNSPSC 50434615: Dried organic iceberg lettuce

The variety of organic lettuce known as organic iceberg lettuce that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50434615 Dried organic iceberg lettuce is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its stated scope. The single recent opportunity explicitly matching dried organic lettuce does not appear in the provided dataset; instead, the code's recent solicitations reflect broader fresh produce, grocery, and food-supply procurement by school districts, state corrections departments, and municipal nutrition programs. State and local buyers under this code are primarily school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System) and state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice via the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, Georgia Department of Education, Illinois Department of Corrections, City of Edinburg Texas). The actual buying patterns show demand for fresh produce in bulk, frozen entrees, dairy, proteins, grains, and miscellaneous grocery staples rather than specifically dried organic lettuce; produce procurements typically span 60–72 line items across fresh fruits, vegetables, and processed items delivered weekly or as scheduled to multiple school and facility locations.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and South, with Texas (TDCJ cafeteria foods IFB 304T-26-300CF, City of Edinburg CACFP RFP 2026-017), Georgia (fresh produce IFBs and RFPs from Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, and Douglas County school districts), and Oregon (ODOC dried beans ITBs) representing the most recent solicitations. Illinois (FY-27 IVHQ quarterly food order) and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District) also posted recently. Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 IFB 2000004323) rounded out the geographic spread. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with multiple Georgia districts soliciting produce and grocery items for child nutrition services on overlapping timelines. The code shows no recent opportunities explicitly tagged to dried organic iceberg lettuce; buyers instead solicit under broader commodity categories for fresh and processed produce, reflecting a mismatch between the code's stated scope and actual state and local procurement behavior under it.
