UNSPSC 50435907: Dried organic hative de niort shallots

The variety of organic shallots known as organic hative de niort shallots that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50435907 Dried organic hative de niort shallots (Commodity) addresses a narrow specialty ingredient category, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code actually reflect broader institutional food procurement—dried beans and bulk food supplies for correctional facilities, school meal programs, and state agencies rather than the specific shallot variety the code nominally describes. State and local buyers soliciting under this code span correctional departments, state purchasing offices, city meal programs, and educational institutions. The work involves specifying and procuring bulk dried legumes and institutional food items to strict USDA and food-safety standards, typically with requirements for triple-cleaned product, specific moisture content, foreign-material limits, and delivery to central distribution points in large quantities for meal preparation.

Recent activity appears concentrated in the South and Pacific Northwest. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (due June 19, 2026) with a 10% Oregon-based preference and FOB destination to Salem; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, issued an IFB for cafeteria food products across five geographic Texas areas (due May 4, 2026, extended via addendum), covering 382 line items including proteins, grains, and specialty items with firm all-inclusive pricing and delivery to six TDCJ distribution points. The Georgia Department of Corrections Industries requested kidney beans in 880-bag increments (due October 9, 2026), and the City of Edinburg, Texas, solicited CACFP meal supplies for 400 children daily under local-vendor preference (due August 4, 2026). The State of Oregon also posted a separate bid for triple-cleaned dried black beans (due August 21, 2026). Illinois and Georgia posted additional food-procurement notices under this code in the June–August 2026 window, though the specific item scope for Georgia's broader food-supplies RFP was not detailed in the available documents.
