UNSPSC 50436829: Dried organic galanga

The type of organic vegetable known as organic galanga that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436829 Dried organic galanga, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The six opportunities posted between May and October 2026 involve dried beans (kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans) and broader institutional food procurement, not galanga or other specialty dried spices. State and local governments buying under this code tier appear to pursue bulk dried legumes and general institutional food supply rather than organic galanga specifically. The issuing bodies include state departments of corrections (Georgia, Oregon, Illinois) and state comptroller procurement divisions (Texas), along with municipal food-service programs (City of Edinburg, Texas), reflecting institutional dining and meal-program fulfillment as the primary use case.

The geographic spread spans Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois, with the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts and the Oregon Department of Corrections representing repeat buyers of dried commodity foods. Recent opportunities include Georgia Correctional Industries' RFQ for kidney beans due October 9, 2026 (880-bag increments, all-inclusive delivery pricing); the City of Edinburg's RFP for CACFP meal-program supplies due August 4, 2026, requiring daily deliveries of beverages, paper goods, proteins, fruits, vegetables, and janitorial supplies to approximately 400 children; and the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026, with 10 percent Oregon-vendor evaluation preference and FOB destination to Salem. The code shows no recent solicitations for dried galanga itself; activity under this commodity designation reflects institutional food-service procurement focused on shelf-stable staples and proteins rather than specialty spice imports.
