UNSPSC 50193105: Batter or breading mixes

UNSPSC 50193105 Batter or breading mixes, a Commodity code, covers prepared dry mixes for bread and baked goods that state and local jurisdictions procure for institutional food service—primarily correctional facilities, veterans' homes, schools, and nonprofit food programs. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing yellow cornbread mix, complete buttermilk biscuit mix, whole wheat bread products, and bakery mixes for kitchen preparation and mass feeding operations. The issuing bodies span state departments of criminal justice and social services, state veterans' homes, nonprofit food-service organizations, and school districts. Institutional buyers value firm pricing, compliance with nutritional standards where federal child-care food programs apply, and reliable scheduled delivery to multiple warehouse or facility locations.

The Texas Department of Criminal Justice dominates recent activity, posting five separate cornbread and biscuit mix solicitations in July 2026 (IW258282, IW258283, IW258285, IW258287, and IW258273) with response dates of July 27–28, 2026, for delivery to distribution centers in Snyder, Beeville, Rosharon, Huntsville, and other facilities. The State of Illinois awarded bakery mixes to JPMC through the ComWell cooperative purchasing vehicle (Notice of Award B-52919, closed August 10, 2026), establishing pre-negotiated pricing for ongoing state agency use. Community Renewal Team, Inc., a Hartford-based anti-poverty organization, solicited whole wheat bread products (Solicitation 1531, due September 23, 2026) for daily delivery with liquidated damages of $150 per day for delays. Head Start of Greater Dallas, Inc., procured approximately 32,409 cases of mixed grocery products including baking supplies under IFB 26-GP (due June 24, 2026, estimated value $969,460.94) with CACFP compliance and multiple supplier selection. Activity concentrates in Texas and Illinois with secondary presence in Connecticut and Georgia.
