UNSPSC 50405404: White acre peas

The variety of peas known as white acre peas

UNSPSC 50405404 White acre peas, a Commodity code, reflects state and local government procurement of fresh produce and food service items for institutional dining operations, though the recent opportunities do not include white acre peas specifically—instead showing active solicitation for broader fresh-produce categories (fruits, vegetables, and canned goods) across correctional facilities, schools, senior centers, mental-health treatment centers, and state-supported living centers. Issuing bodies span Texas state agencies (Health and Human Services Commission, Department of Criminal Justice), Illinois state agencies (Department of Corrections, Department of Mental Health), Georgia school systems (Bartow County, Dougherty County, Bryan County, Early County), Florida counties (Collier County), Wisconsin school districts (Madison Metropolitan), and specialized municipal entities (Head Start of Greater Dallas, San Antonio Parks & Recreation). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Texas Health and Human Services Commission appear as repeat buyers, with multiple solicitations posted in recent weeks for food warehouses and state-supported living centers.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Illinois, with secondary activity in Wisconsin and Florida. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (October 23, 2026, response deadline) for consumable foods and food service supplies at Lufkin State Supported Living Center; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's fresh-fruit-and-vegetable solicitations for warehouse operations in Palestine, Snyder, and Huntsville (October 14–19, 2026, response deadlines); the Illinois Department of Corrections' IFB 27426DOCJOLIEB53849 for fresh-produce delivery to Joliet Treatment Center (September 3, 2026, response deadline with small-business set-aside); Dougherty County Board of Education's fresh-produce sealed bid (June 16, 2026, response deadline) covering 40 line items for 24 school nutrition sites; and Bartow County School System's RFP 10-2026-019 (June 22, 2026, proposal deadline) for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles. Pricing is typically quoted F.O.B. Destination with all transportation costs included, and contract terms generally run one year with optional renewal periods. Most institutional buyers emphasize USDA compliance, food-safety certification, quality standards, and compliance with state and local prevailing-wage and set-aside programs where applicable.
