UNSPSC 50435511: Dried organic yellow chile peppers

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

UNSPSC 50435511 Dried organic yellow chile peppers is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local procurement activity, does not reflect the actual work being solicited under this specific taxonomy. The recent opportunities posted under or near this code encompass broad food-service supply for schools, corrections facilities, and child nutrition programs—dried beans, fresh produce, cafeteria food products, and grocery items for K–12 nutrition services—none of which are specifically dried organic yellow chile peppers. The sourcing bodies issuing these solicitations include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), county school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Muscogee County School District and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia; Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri; Douglas County School System in Georgia), municipal school nutrition programs (Edinburg, Texas via the City of Edinburg for CACFP), and regional cooperatives (GEC Buying Cooperative). The code shows little relevant activity; the opportunities actually posted reflect general food procurement for institutional food service rather than specialty dried chiles.

Geographic activity centers on Georgia (multiple school districts and state procurement), Texas (TDCJ, City of Edinburg, Comptroller's office), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Virginia (Fairfax County), and Oregon (Department of Corrections), with Illinois also present. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00016233 for 127,500 pounds of dried pinto beans (due March 20, 2026), the Texas Comptroller's IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five TDCJ geographic areas (due May 4, 2026, extended via Addendum No. 2), Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K–12 (due April 27, 2026), and the Muscogee County School District's ITB 26-017 for fresh produce items (due April 27, 2026). Dried organic yellow chile peppers do not appear as a line item in any identified solicitation, indicating minimal or no current state and local demand under this specific commodity code.
