UNSPSC 50435506: Dried organic fresno peppers

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

UNSPSC 50435506 Dried organic fresno peppers is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of dried pepper products, though recent solicitation activity shows minimal direct purchasing of this specific item. The code represents a narrow product line within broader food service and nutrition supply chains that state and local governments operate for correctional facilities, schools, child care programs, and other institutional feeding operations. State and local issuing bodies across this commodity span correctional departments, school districts, county school systems, and municipal child care programs, with the most active recent solicitation volume concentrated in school nutrition procurement rather than specialty dried pepper procurement per se.

Recent state and local opportunities under related commodity codes reveal substantial activity in institutional food service procurement across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Oregon, and Virginia, driven by school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, Muscogee County School District), state correctional departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and municipal child nutrition programs (City of Edinburg, Texas). Representative solicitations include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's Invitation for Bid 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across multiple warehouse locations (response due May 4, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' Invitation to Bid S-29100-00016233 for dried pinto beans at approximately 127,500 pounds (response due March 20, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract bid (response due April 27, 2026). These opportunities demonstrate that state and local governments are actively purchasing dried commodity food items through competitive sealed bids and RFPs; however, no recent solicitations in the source materials specifically reference dried fresno peppers or other specialty dried peppers, suggesting limited current procurement demand under this narrow commodity code.
