UNSPSC 50401801: Anasazi or aztec beans

The variety of beans known as anasazi or aztec beans

UNSPSC 50401801 Anasazi or aztec beans (Commodity) does not align with the state and local procurement activity appearing in the recent opportunities block. The code names a specific legume variety, but the opportunities posted under it solicit fresh produce broadly—fruits, vegetables, eggs, and prepared food items—rather than dried beans or specialty bean products. School districts, county boards of education, state departments, and regional cooperative purchasing entities in Georgia, Texas, Florida, Missouri, and Connecticut have posted 30+ RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs since February 2026 for produce supply to child nutrition and senior services programs, but none explicitly target Anasazi or Aztec beans as a commodity line. The mismatch suggests either a coding error in the source data or that the commodity code is being used as a catch-all for general produce procurement despite its narrow technical scope.

The purchasing bodies are predominantly school nutrition programs (Madison Metropolitan School District, Northside ISD, Savannah-Chatham County Schools, Glynn County Schools, Bulloch County Schools, and dozens of others), state criminal justice agencies (Texas Department of Criminal Justice), Head Start operators, city senior services divisions, and multi-district cooperative buying groups. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Florida, Missouri, Connecticut, and elsewhere. Representative recent solicitations include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4163 (due July 29, 2026) for 5,900 weekly servings of fresh fruits and vegetables under the USDA Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Program with organic produce preference, Northside ISD's RFP 2026-048 (due May 7, 2026) covering fresh produce delivery to 117 campuses across San Antonio, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's bulk carrot and potato procurement under IFBs IW253079 and IW253099 (due June 23, 2026). Because the code shows no commodity-specific activity for the named bean varieties, pursuing this code requires clarification from procurement offices on whether Anasazi or Aztec beans are genuinely needed or whether the tagging reflects a data entry error in their systems.
