UNSPSC 50403270: Cabin corn

One of the varieties of corn with the greatest productive distribution, they are differentiated by their yield and quality, cultivated in the high Andean areas of the sierra, with tolerance to low rainfall and adaptation to this climate, which has its origin in the district of Cabanaconde., in the Arequipa region, Peru.

UNSPSC 50403270 Cabin corn is a Commodity code with limited recent relevance to state and local procurement activity. The source records show that this code designation appears in a Georgia posting, but the recent state and local solicitations actually being conducted under produce-related categories overwhelmingly target fresh vegetables and fruits for school nutrition, child care, and institutional food service — not cabin corn or any specific corn variety. The opportunities reflect procurement for fresh apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, lettuce, oranges, potatoes, strawberries, tomatoes, and mixed produce bundles delivered to school sites, senior centers, corrections facilities, and child nutrition programs. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with a smaller volume of state-level procurements (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Georgia Department of Education) and regional education cooperatives.

Activity is concentrated in Georgia and Texas, where school districts in Savannah-Chatham, Muscogee, Liberty, Glynn, Bryan, Bartow, Bulloch, Henry, Douglas, Dougherty, Early, and McAllen counties have posted sealed-bid and RFP solicitations for fresh produce during the past four months. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice has issued multiple IFBs for carrots, white potatoes, and sweet potatoes for canning, with bids due in late June 2026; the Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa, Florida solicited specialty fruits and vegetables for the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program under RFP 26039RFPDST with proposals due March 11, 2026; and the Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin solicited fresh fruit and vegetable snacks under RFB 4163 with bids due July 29, 2026. The Meriden Public Schools in Connecticut, Austin ISD and Northside ISD in Texas, and Head Start of Greater Dallas also posted major produce procurements. The code itself does not capture this activity reliably — vendors pursuing produce supply contracts to state and local buyers should monitor school nutrition program RFPs, IFBs, and ITBs directly rather than relying on the cabin corn classification.
