They are not officially in production with Maxxis yet, they are still at sampling stage. So you may get the odd company that will sell them, but it will not be many that are available yet.

Why doesn’t UDC or M4O make tires?
Because this is really hard to do. UDC does desgin tires (e.g. NightRider), but they are made by Innova, one of the only companies that can work on 36er tires.
Is UDC planning on selling them when they’re available?
Use some shorter cranks!
Ok, maybe not. 
Sounds like it could be the right wheel size for you to commute. If I ever get a 32“ (that‘s a big IF, considering my number-of-unis to available-space ratio) it‘ll be a) out of curiosity and b) in the hope to combine better maneuverability than the 36er with higher speed than the 29er. Sounds like a reasonable uni to ride to and in the city, except on very crowded days and places. Then again that’s what a G29er is good at… Anyway, be aware that the Oracle 32“ uses a 125mm hub instead of 100mm. Some people are happy with that while others (like me) strike the cranks with their heels.
Hm, a nice custom 100mm wide 32“ V-frame - now that would be something!

Pretty much every unicycle part is made by an external manufacturer to the unicycle brand, just to the brands specification.
Tires are really high tooling cost, which makes it only worth it to make your own if you know you can sell a lot of them. There is no reason to make anything other than 36” and 32” specifically for unicycles, because in all other sizes unicycles are such a niche product that you could never compete in pricing with bike tires. (I’m ignoring brief attempts in making 19” unicycle tires here)

Yes, a few years ago @rogeratunicycledotcom shared some behind the scene cool stories about making large tires.

So that’s kind of why my 32” ended up being unused. I got a carbon rim and Nightrider Lite for the 36er and suddenly it was manoeuvrable enough.
It’s still a bit unwieldy off road though and I expect that the 32” will fit in perfectly there.
I’ll definitely try sticking a freewheel in one too.

I genuinely can’t wait till the aspen is available, I have a 32” and I love it but the choice of two tire isn’t enough and I want one that has more grip off road and this would be great especially if it’s tubeless ready, I want to see if the Odessy Optis will work on a 32” as well

I will indeed put on the 110s again.
I’ve now got an Aspen on order.
@davejh and others in the UK, Willow appears to still have 13 in stock, and based on Instagram have had them for over a month!
I’ll make sure I’ve got a wheel ready to accept it this week while I’m waiting. It’s a good thing Willow didn’t have Nextie 32” carbon rims in stock as well or I might have impulse bought one of those too!

Still waiting for mine. I should send an email to Nextie to learn about when my rim should arrive 
Fun fact: my keyboard autocorrected “rim” with “sin”. Have I sinned by buying this carbon rim?

Have you found a source for a 32” Aspen to go on it?
Not yet. I have a 32" NightRider which I will use at first. I hope we’ll get a more gravel-oriented tire in the next months, so I’ll wait for it to be available 
MAXXIS will likely need a significant portion of the bike industry to commit to 32” wheels to get production up to single tire availability.
Right now it’s kinda in the exploratory phase.
I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here. Maxxis have already been testing these for well over a year, have them in production, and have said there will be other tyres coming soon.
There are a few quotes like this:
Depending on how complete bicycle brands develop – in which direction they go – we’ll enlarge the portfolio [in 2025], or next year.
With the generally improved grip and roll-over ability of the 32”, I’d bet on a more gravel oriented tyre coming next from Maxxis. I’d expect it to be a tread that already exists, and the Ravager is very similar to the Aspen, so maybe the Reaver or the Rambler…
Other brands are staying relatively tight lipped, but I’d be very surprised if we don’t see the other big names bring out 32” tyres as well. They’re all desperate for something new to pretend is the next big thing, in order to sell more bikes/bike parts.
At the price these are I’m comfortable buying one now as I do think this will be an excellent XC tyre for the conditions I get around here, and if I decide I want something different I’ll be far more informed on what I might want having tried this.

Would seem my info was kinda old I guess. The tires have moved along further than I was aware of. No doubt the bike industry needs a new money sink so they might start pushing new models sooner than I thought.
Well, it’s real!
I’ve not got a wheel built to put it on yet, delivery was too fast.
