UNSPSC 50436400: Dried organic tomatoes

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

UNSPSC 50436400 Dried organic tomatoes is a Class code that does not reflect the scope of recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities block shows no solicitations for dried organic tomatoes; instead, the code appears in active procurements for fresh produce, school lunch staples, protein-based cafeteria food items, dried beans, and general grocery supply contracts. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or a code-classification issue at the issuing bodies. State and local procurement under this code, as currently evidenced in the source, does not correspond to the code's nominal scope.

Recent opportunities do show substantial activity in related dried-goods and bulk food procurement: the Oregon Department of Corrections has issued two competitive bids for dried pinto and red beans (over 127,500 pounds in March 2026 and approximately 42,500 pounds in June 2026), with historical pricing around $0.43 to $0.493 per pound and Oregon-fabrication preferences applied. School districts across Georgia, Missouri, Texas, and Virginia are actively soliciting fresh produce, grocery staples, and meal-program food supplies through RFPs and IFBs targeting July 2026 through June 2027 contract periods, including Fairfax County Public Schools (Master Grocery K-12, April 2026), Rockwood R-VI School District (grocery items, April 2026), Muscogee County School District (fresh produce, April 2026), and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (fresh produce, April 2026). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice and the City of Edinburg, Texas are also soliciting broad food supply contracts for cafeteria and CACFP meal programs. Given the code–activity disconnect, pursue this code only if your firm supplies dried legumes, bulk dried goods, or institutional dried-food staples to state corrections, school districts, or municipal meal programs; the dried-tomatoes designation does not reflect current buying patterns.
