UNSPSC 50435700: Dried organic rutabagas

The type of organic vegetable known as organic rutabagas that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50435700 Dried organic rutabagas is a Class code, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it do not reflect the code's nominal scope. The three opportunities explicitly identified under this code—the City of Edinburg CACFP meal program, the State of Illinois quarterly food order, and the Oregon Department of Corrections dried beans procurements—involve general food service supply (beverages, meal components, dried legumes) rather than dried rutabagas specifically. The remaining nine opportunities in the dataset address fresh produce, school nutrition grocery items, and institutional food distribution, none of which align with dried organic rutabagas as a discrete commodity. This mismatch suggests the code shows little relevant recent activity for vendors whose product line centers on dried organic rutabagas.

State and local food service procurement activity overall—visible across these nine broader food supply solicitations—does show sustained demand from school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323, Rockwood R-VI School District CHILDNUTRITIONSERVICESGROCERYITEMS20262027, Muscogee County School District ITB 26-017, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System Bid 2634, Douglas County School System RFPs 26-003 and 26-004), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and municipal food service agencies (City of Edinburg, State of Georgia, State of Illinois). Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, and Virginia through mid-2026. However, none of these procurement streams explicitly request dried organic rutabagas, and the code's assignment to general food service opportunities rather than dried root vegetable suppliers limits its utility for business development targeting this specific commodity category.
