UNSPSC 50435004: Dried organic tomatillo

The variety of organic nightshades known as organic tomatillo that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50435004 Dried organic tomatillo is a Commodity code representing specialty dried produce items for institutional food service and meal programs. State and local governments soliciting under this code are buying dried legumes and specialty food staples — kidney beans, pinto beans, black beans, and other dried proteins — for correctional facilities, child and adult care food programs, state agency kitchens, and educational institutions. The code reflects how issuing bodies classify bulk dried food procurement when tagged by suppliers or procurement offices, though recent activity shows most solicitations are for dried beans rather than tomatillos specifically. Work solicited ranges from small orders (880-bag increments for single state correctional facilities) to large institutional supply contracts spanning multiple distribution points, with delivery, storage, compliance documentation, and quality assurance built into vendor responsibilities.

Recent opportunities show activity across state correctional systems, state purchasing divisions, and municipal food service programs in Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued bids for approximately 42,500 pounds of triple-cleaned pinto and red beans (solicitation S2910000017140, due June 19, 2026) with a 10% Oregon-preference evaluation credit; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Texas Comptroller Statewide Procurement Division, issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB 304T26300CF) for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products including dried beans, with responses extended to May 4, 2026. Georgia Correctional Industries solicited kidney beans in 880-bag increments (RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026), and the City of Edinburg, Texas, requested food and nonfood items including dried proteins for a Child and Adult Care Food Program serving approximately 400 children (RFP 2026-017, due August 4, 2026 with local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051). Issuing bodies typically require USDA grading compliance, triple-cleaning or equivalent foreign-material removal, FOB delivery to specified distribution centers, all-inclusive pricing with no separate freight reimbursement, and product certifications or samples demonstrating food-safety compliance.
