UNSPSC 50411849: Organic tonka beans

The variety of organic beans known as organic tonka beans

UNSPSC 50411849 Organic tonka beans, a Commodity code, sees minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specialty agricultural product with limited institutional or bulk-purchasing applications in the public sector. The recent opportunities dataset contains no solicitations explicitly requesting organic tonka beans or related specialty legume commodities; instead, the tagged opportunities span school nutrition programs, fresh produce procurement for child nutrition services, and grocery item purchasing across multiple jurisdictions.

State and local agencies posting under or near this code are primarily school districts and county boards of education soliciting fresh produce, prepared foods, and grocery staples to support the National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program, USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program, and child nutrition services. Recent activity includes the Early County Board of Education (Georgia) seeking food and non-food products for three schools (due June 8, 2026); Northside Independent School District in San Antonio (Texas) requesting fresh produce for all district campuses (due May 7, 2026); Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa (Florida) procuring specialty fruits and vegetables for the FFVP (due March 11, 2026); Bulloch County School District (Georgia) pursuing locally grown produce for its Farm to School program (due May 4, 2026); Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri seeking over 900 grocery line items (due April 29, 2026); and multiple Georgia county and regional school systems including Savannah-Chatham County, Glynn County, Liberty County, Douglas County, and Muscogee County all soliciting fresh produce on annual contracts. The geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Florida and Missouri, reflecting the prevalence of school nutrition procurement in those states.

The mismatch between the code's nominal commodity and the actual work being procured suggests either a cataloging error or that the code is being applied to institutional food-service line-item aggregation rather than specialty ingredient procurement. Organic tonka beans do not appear in any representative recent opportunity specification, and the code shows no direct relevance to current state and local purchasing patterns. Firms pursuing activity in this taxonomy should focus on demonstrated capability in bulk produce supply, HACCP compliance, Buy American certification, refrigerated logistics, and school nutrition program experience rather than specialty legume sourcing.
