UNSPSC 50435811: Dried organic sea kale

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

UNSPSC 50435811 Dried organic sea kale (Commodity) does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually soliciting under recent opportunities tagged to this code. The recent procurement activity shows no genuine requests for dried organic sea kale; instead, the code has captured general food supply solicitations for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and child care services that span broad categories of groceries, produce, proteins, dairy, and pantry staples. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual solicitations suggests either a tagging error in the source data or that the code is not actively used for direct state and local procurement in the market right now.

The represented opportunities span school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri; Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, and Douglas County School Systems in Georgia), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), and municipal child care programs (City of Edinburg, Texas). These issuing bodies are soliciting multi-category grocery, produce, and food-service supply contracts via RFP, RFQ, IFB, and ITB notices with response dates spanning January through August 2026. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Oregon, and Virginia, with secondary activity in Illinois. None of the recent opportunities name dried organic sea kale as a line item or scope element; the code assignment appears to be a data-tagging anomaly rather than a signal of active procurement demand for the commodity itself. Business development professionals should verify category alignment with their specific product lines before pursuing opportunities under this code.
