UNSPSC 50435212: Dried organic red onions

The variety of organic onions known as organic red onions that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50435212 Dried organic red onions, a Commodity code, appears minimally in recent state and local procurement activity. The single concrete example tagged under this code—a Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products solicitation (IFB 304T26300CF, response deadline May 4, 2026)—does not actually specify dried red onions or organic produce; the scope covers broad institutional food supply including proteins, dairy, grains, and miscellaneous staples, with no indication that dried organic onions were line items in that bid. The remaining opportunities in the dataset, though tagged at higher UNSPSC tiers covering fresh produce, dried beans, and general grocery supply, do not reference dried organic onions as a solicited item. School districts and state corrections agencies dominate the recent posting activity, but the specificity of dried organic red onions as a procurement category does not align with what these bodies are currently buying—they solicit fresh produce, institutional staples, and bulk dried goods like pinto beans, not specialty dried organic onion products.

The code shows no recent focused activity or clear buying pattern. Vendors pursuing this category should verify with state and local procurement offices whether dried organic red onions are being procured under broader produce or grocery codes rather than under the narrow Commodity designation, or whether the category sees periodic demand tied to institutional menu cycles or bulk commodity purchasing vehicles that do not appear in the current snapshot of active solicitations. Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, and Virginia account for the largest recent food-service procurement activity in the dataset, but none of these jurisdictions have posted opportunities explicitly targeting dried organic red onions as a solicited item.
