UNSPSC 50436819: Dried organic chrysanthemum greens

The type of organic vegetable known as organic chrysanthemum greens that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436819 Dried organic chrysanthemum greens is a Commodity code that captures fresh and processed produce items purchased by state and local institutional food programs. The recent solicitation activity under this code, however, shows that state and local governments are actually procuring dried legumes—kidney beans, pinto beans, black beans—and broader institutional food supplies for correctional facilities, school meal programs, and child care food service rather than chrysanthemum greens specifically. The issuing bodies include state correctional departments (Georgia Correctional Industries, Oregon Department of Corrections), state procurement offices (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State of Illinois), state education or food-service agencies (State of Oregon), and municipalities supporting child and adult care food programs (City of Edinburg, Texas). The work solicited ranges from single-commodity procurements of dried beans in bulk quantities to comprehensive food-supply contracts spanning proteins, dairy, grains, beverages, and support supplies for institutional meal preparation.

Geographic activity centers on the South, Southwest, and Pacific Northwest. Georgia Correctional Industries solicited kidney beans with a response date of October 9, 2026 (RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027); the City of Edinburg, Texas, issued RFP 2026-017 for Child and Adult Care Food Program meal service with proposals due August 4, 2026, and includes a local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051; the State of Oregon solicited dried black beans, triple-cleaned, due August 21, 2026 (S2910000017705), and the Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans, due June 19, 2026, with a combined 10% evaluation preference for goods fabricated or processed entirely in Oregon and for Oregon-headquartered bidders; the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products spanning 382 line items with response extended to May 4, 2026, and the State of Illinois solicited weekly food orders for the July–September quarter due June 26, 2026. The code shows limited activity specific to dried organic chrysanthemum greens and appears to be a taxonomy mismatch for the institutional dried-legume and bulk-food-supply procurement category that dominates current opportunities.
