UNSPSC 50435507: Dried organic kapia peppers

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

UNSPSC 50435507 Dried organic kapia peppers (Commodity) appears in state and local procurement primarily as a line item within broader food-supply solicitations rather than as a standalone commodity. Recent opportunities reveal that this code does not map to active, category-specific procurement. The source shows no dedicated solicitations for dried organic kapia peppers; instead, the code is tagged to general produce, grocery, and meal-service contracts where peppers—fresh or processed—may be one of many items listed across broader vegetable or specialty-food categories. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under related food-supply codes include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Muscogee County in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia, Douglas County in Georgia), state correctional departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state nutrition agencies (Georgia, Illinois), municipalities (City of Edinburg, Texas), and county school systems, with school nutrition programs representing the dominant buyer segment.

Geographic activity centers on the Southeast (Georgia, with multiple school-district solicitations) and Texas (Edinburg, TDCJ), with secondary activity in Oregon (ODOC), Virginia (Fairfax County), Missouri (Rockwood), and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Rockwood R-VI School District's IFB for Child Nutrition Services Grocery Items 2026-2027 (due April 29, 2026), a broad procurement covering over 900 line items across vegetables, fruits, dairy, and prepared foods; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Invitation for Bid IFB No. 304T-26-300CF for Cafeteria Food Products (due May 4, 2026), spanning 382 line items including canned and fresh vegetables delivered to six TDCJ distribution points; and the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for Fresh Produce and Eggs (due March 4, 2026), a cooperative-purchasing vehicle serving 30 school districts across two Georgia areas with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million. Dried organic kapia peppers, when procured at all under this code, are typically bundled into cost-per-serving or line-item pricing within these larger meal-service or supply-distribution contracts rather than procured as a specialty or stand-alone product category.
