UNSPSC 50436402: Dried organic alicante tomatoes

The variety of organic tomatoes known as organic alicante tomatoes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436402 Dried organic alicante tomatoes (Commodity) shows scattered activity across state and local food service procurement, but the recent solicitations present a significant mismatch between the code's nominal scope and what is actually being bought. The thirteen recent opportunities span school districts, state corrections departments, and child nutrition programs, yet none explicitly names dried organic alicante tomatoes or dried tomatoes of any kind as a line item. The code is being applied to broad food service contracts that enumerate hundreds of product categories — proteins, produce, dairy, grains, condiments, beverages, and staple items — but dried organic alicante tomatoes do not surface in any of the available bid documents or summaries. This suggests either that the code is being misapplied at posting, or that tomatoes appear as an undisclosed subset within larger procurements where individual commodity-level transparency is limited to the full bid document itself.

The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and state agencies: Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Douglas County School System (Georgia), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Oregon Department of Corrections, the City of Edinburg (Texas) for its Child and Adult Care Food Program, and the State of Georgia. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Missouri, Oregon, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 (IFB, due April 27, 2026), Rockwood School District's Child Nutrition Services Grocery Items (due April 29, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections' Dried Pinto Beans procurement (ITB, due March 20, 2026 and June 19, 2026 for separate awards). Because the code does not align with any explicitly described procurement activity in the recent opportunities, pursue this code only if your firm has evidence from direct government sources that dried organic alicante tomatoes are specifically required as menu items or commodity lines within the broader school nutrition or corrections food service contracts posting under this taxonomy code.
