UNSPSC 50435501: Dried organic ajies peppers

The variety of organic peppers known as organic ajies peppers that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50435501 Dried organic ajies peppers is a Commodity code that encompasses dried chile and pepper products for institutional food service and bulk supply. State and local procurement activity under this code shows limited recent direct targeting of dried organic peppers specifically; however, the wider scope of dried legumes and bulk food procurement reveals that state corrections departments, child nutrition programs, and institutional food services are active buyers of dried commodity proteins and produce. Georgia Correctional Industries, the State of Oregon, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, the Illinois Department of Veterans' Homes and Quality Care, and the City of Edinburg, Texas have all issued recent solicitations for dried beans, dried produce, and institutional meal-service supplies. The work being solicited includes triple-cleaned dried legumes meeting USDA grading standards, compliance with FDA and food-safety regulations, bulk packaging suitable for institutional cooking, and FOB destination delivery to state distribution centers or school and correctional facilities.

Recent activity clusters in the Pacific Northwest and Texas, with Georgia and Illinois also soliciting under related dried-commodity codes. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued bids for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026, with a 10% evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-headquartered vendors and historical pricing at $0.493 per pound; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued an IFB for cafeteria food products spanning 382 line items including grains and dried goods across five Texas warehouse locations, with response due May 4, 2026 (extended via addendum); Georgia Correctional Industries requested bids for kidney beans in increments of 880 bags with response due October 9, 2026 under RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027. The City of Edinburg, Texas solicited food and nonfood items for a Child and Adult Care Food Program serving 400 children daily under RFP 2026-017, requiring daily deliveries and compliance with Texas Department of Agriculture and CACFP standards. Bidders should note that state corrections and institutional food-service programs typically require triple-cleaned product, palletized FOB destination delivery, USDA or equivalent grading compliance, one-year minimum shelf life, and all-inclusive pricing with no separate freight line items.
