UNSPSC 50436224: Dried organic triple treat squash

The variety of organic summer squashes and summer pumpkins known as organic triple treat squash that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436224 Dried organic triple treat squash, a Commodity code, nominally describes single dried squash products but shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity under the code. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span broad food supply categories for institutional meal programs — school nutrition services, corrections facility operations, and child-care meal programs — yet only one of thirteen recent solicitations addresses dried beans or legumes at all, and none explicitly solicit dried squash. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two separate invitations for dried pinto and red beans (ITB S-29100-00016233 in March 2026 and IFB S2910000017140 in June 2026), with the June procurement requesting approximately 42,500 pounds of triple-cleaned beans meeting U.S. No. 2 or better grade standards, FOB destination to the ODOC Central Distribution Center in Salem with 45-day delivery windows. The remaining twelve opportunities solicit fresh produce, mixed grocery and food-service items, and complete meal-program supplies for school districts, county school systems, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois state agencies, and the City of Edinburg's child-care program. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) each posting multi-item grocery or produce contracts; the DCSS also aggregated purchasing across the GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts simultaneously. State agencies and corrections departments represent a secondary tier: TDCJ via the Texas Comptroller (cafeteria food products IFB 304T-26-300CF), ODOC (dried beans), Georgia Department of Corrections (fresh produce), and Illinois state operations (weekly food orders).

Activity concentrates in the Southeast and Texas, with Georgia school districts posting five of thirteen opportunities, Oregon corrections procurement accounting for two, Texas entities (TDCJ, City of Edinburg) contributing two, Missouri (Rockwood) and Virginia (Fairfax County) each one, and Illinois state operations one. Representative recent work includes the City of Edinburg's CACFP meal program RFP (RFP2026017, due August 4, 2026) requesting beverages, paper goods, food products, janitorial supplies, and nonfood items for 400 children daily; Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract IFB (2000004323, due April 27, 2026) requiring weekly delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens across northern Virginia; the Rockwood School District's child nutrition grocery items solicitation (due April 29, 2026) covering over 900 line items for approximately 6,900 lunch and 900 breakfast participants daily; and the TDCJ's cafeteria food products IFB (304T-26-300CF, extended to May 4, 2026) encompassing 382 line items spanning proteins, dairy, grains, beverages, and staples for six distribution points across Texas. The code itself shows little relevant recent activity; vendors pursuing this taxonomy should monitor dried-goods and legume procurements through corrections and large-scale institutional meal programs rather than rely on UNSPSC 50436224 alone.
