UNSPSC 50436615: Dried organic queensland blue squash

The variety of organic winter squashes and winter pumpkins known as organic queensland blue squash that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436615 Dried organic queensland blue squash is a Commodity code that, despite its specific product name, shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities dataset contains no solicitations explicitly requesting dried organic queensland blue squash; instead, the records tagged under this code reflect broad food-service procurement by school districts, corrections departments, and municipal child nutrition programs seeking mixed grocery and produce supplies. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual solicitation content suggests either broad classification tagging by issuing bodies or administrative categorization unrelated to the specific product line. State and local buyers under this code span school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State of Georgia, State of Illinois), municipal nutrition programs (City of Edinburg, Texas), and multi-district cooperative purchasing vehicles (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts).

Geographic activity clusters in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, Virginia, and Illinois, with school nutrition services and institutional food procurement dominating the recent solicitation volume. Representative recent opportunities include Rockwood R-VI School District's grocery items solicitation (IFB, due April 29, 2026) covering over 900 line items for the 2026-27 school year; Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) supplying 52 schools and a central warehouse; the Douglas County School System's cooperative RFP for fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia districts (due March 4, 2026) with estimated annual spending of approximately $5.5 million across two areas; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products procurement (IFB 304T-26-300CF, due May 4, 2026) covering 382 line items across five geographic areas. Oregon Department of Corrections separately solicited dried pinto and red beans (ITB S2910000017140, due June 19, 2026) for approximately 42,500 pounds and dried pinto beans alone (ITB S2910000016233, due March 20, 2026) for 127,500 pounds. The code shows sustained activity in school meal programs, correctional facility food service, and municipal child nutrition—segments where volume purchasing of shelf-stable staples and produce remains consistent—but no visible demand specifically targeting dried organic queensland blue squash as a line item.
