UNSPSC 50436407: Dried organic delicious tomatoes

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

UNSPSC 50436407 Dried organic delicious tomatoes is a Commodity code that encompasses dried tomato products supplied to state and local government food service operations, particularly school districts, correctional facilities, and child nutrition programs. State and local governments procure this and related dried produce under this code primarily as components of institutional meal programs serving captive populations or enrolled beneficiaries. The issuing bodies are predominantly state departments of corrections, state purchasing divisions acting on behalf of multiple agencies, school districts of varying sizes, and municipal child nutrition programs. Recent solicitations show that dried produce sits within broader food supply contracts rather than as standalone line items; the Code of Edinburg's CACFP meal program solicitation (RFP 2026017, due August 4, 2026) aggregates dried and fresh vegetables alongside proteins and dairy under a single food supply contract, while the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products procurement (IFB 304T-26-300CF, extended to May 4, 2026) lists dried goods within a 382-line-item contract spanning multiple food categories across five geographic warehouse distribution areas.

Geographic concentration centers on Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, and Virginia, with standout repeat activity from state purchasing divisions (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts for TDCJ, Georgia state agency procurements) and large school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County, and Muscogee County School System). The Oregon Department of Corrections has issued multiple solicitations for dried pinto and red beans (S2910000017140 with a response due June 19, 2026, and S2910000016233 with a response due March 20, 2026, requesting 42,500 and 127,500 pounds respectively), indicating recurring procurement demand under this code tier. Most school district produce procurements emphasize fresh items in dedicated RFPs and RFQs, with dried goods embedded in broader master grocery or food-supply contracts rather than itemized separately, suggesting that standalone dried-produce opportunities remain episodic and typically flow through larger institutional food distributors rather than direct-to-commodity suppliers.
