UNSPSC 50404501: Beluga lentils

The variety of lentils known as beluga lentils

UNSPSC 50404501 Beluga lentils is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local contract opportunities do not include solicitations for beluga lentils specifically. The code shows no relevant recent activity. The most recent opportunities in the dataset involve fresh produce procurement—apples, bananas, carrots, potatoes, onions, tomatoes, lettuce, and other fresh fruits and vegetables—solicited by state departments of criminal justice, school districts, health and human services agencies, and county systems across Texas, Illinois, Georgia, Wisconsin, and Florida. These opportunities span food service for state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, senior centers, and mental health treatment centers, issued as IFBs, RFPs, RFQs, and ITNs with response dates from May through October 2026. Beluga lentils, as a specific commodity line item, do not appear in any of the named solicitations or specifications reviewed.

If beluga lentils are procured at all under this code by state and local entities, the activity is not surfacing in current public opportunities. Vendors pursuing this code should monitor for future solicitations from institutional food service buyers—particularly state departments of corrections, health and human services, and school nutrition programs—but should not assume near-term demand based on current posting patterns.
