UNSPSC 50436600: Dried organic winter squashes and winter pumpkins

The type of organic vegetable known as organic winter squashes and winter pumpkins that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436600 Dried organic winter squashes and winter pumpkins, a Class code, does not align with the state and local procurement activity tagged under it in recent solicitation records. The recent opportunities identified under this code encompass fresh produce procurement (apples, bananas, berries, leafy greens, tomatoes, potatoes, eggs), dried legumes (pinto and red beans), general grocery and cafeteria food products, and main-line food service distribution — none of which are dried organic winter squashes or pumpkins. The mismatch between the nominal code definition and actual procurement scope suggests either a tagging error in source records or a code application issue that does not reflect current state and local buying patterns.

No recent solicitations specifically request dried organic winter squashes or winter pumpkins as discrete line items or procurement categories. The code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement systems. School districts, corrections departments, and municipalities that posted opportunities during the period from January through July 2026 — including the Oregon Department of Corrections, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Muscogee County and Savannah-Chatham County School Systems in Georgia, the City of Edinburg Texas, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice — focus procurement activity on fresh produce, dried beans, general grocery supplies, and full-line food service distribution rather than on specialty dried squash or pumpkin products. Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat it as inactive at the state and local level based on current visibility and focus prospecting efforts on the broader dried-goods or fresh-produce families that actually generate solicitations in school nutrition, corrections, and municipal food service operations.
