UNSPSC 50435602: Dried organic round white potatoes

The variety of organic potatoes known as organic round white potatoes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50435602 Dried organic round white potatoes (Commodity) shows minimal recent activity under its stated code scope, with state and local procurement offices instead sourcing a broader range of dried beans and institutional food products through the same taxonomy classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect institutional bulk purchasing for correctional facilities, school meal programs, and state agencies — including kidney beans for Georgia Correctional Industries, dried pinto and red beans for the Oregon Department of Corrections, and dried black beans for the State of Oregon — rather than the organic white potato specification the code nominally describes. State and local buyers under this code family include corrections departments, state procurement offices, and municipal food service programs serving K–12 and adult care populations, with issuing bodies concentrated in corrections and social-services procurement divisions that manage commodity-scale food sourcing.

Geographic concentration is heaviest in Oregon, Georgia, and Texas, where correctional and social-services agencies are active institutional buyers of dried legumes and bulk food staples. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' June 2026 RFQ for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (response date June 19, 2026) with a combined 10% local and in-state processing evaluation preference; Georgia Correctional Industries' October 2026 RFQ for kidney beans in 880-bag increments (response due October 9, 2026); and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's May 2026 IFB for cafeteria food products across 382 line items including proteins, dairy, grains, and dried goods, with delivery to six warehouse locations across Texas (response due May 4, 2026, extended via addendum from April 21). The City of Edinburg, Texas also solicited under this classification for CACFP meal program supplies in August 2026. The code shows strong institutional volume but sparse alignment with its organic white potato nominal scope; vendors should assess whether their product lines match the dried-legume and commodity-staple focus dominating current procurement activity.
