UNSPSC 50435803: Dried organic dulse

The variety of organic sea vegetables known as organic dulse that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50435803 Dried organic dulse (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — organic seaweed products — does not match the institutional food-service solicitations posted under this code from June through October 2026. Georgia Correctional Industries solicited kidney beans (IFB, due October 9, 2026); Oregon issued separate bids for dried black beans, triple-cleaned (RFQ, due August 21, 2026) and pinto and red beans at approximately 42,500 pounds (RFQ, due June 19, 2026); the City of Edinburg, Texas requested CACFP meal program supplies including proteins, beverages, and paper goods (RFP, due August 4, 2026); the Texas Department of Criminal Justice requested cafeteria food products across 382 line items including proteins, dairy, and staple items (IFB, due May 4, 2026); and the State of Illinois solicited weekly food orders (due June 26, 2026). None of these opportunities involve dulse or organic seaweed products. The mismatch suggests either miscategorization at the source or that the code does not reflect current state and local purchasing patterns in this product family.

State and local institutions — correctional facilities, child care programs, and educational food services across Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois — are actively procuring dried beans and staple food items in bulk for institutional meal preparation. However, because the recent opportunities solicited under this code do not align with the code's stated commodity scope, the code provides no actionable signal for vendors specializing in organic dulse or seaweed products.
