UNSPSC 50414401: Organic beluga lentils

The variety of organic lentils known as organic beluga lentils

UNSPSC 50414401 Organic beluga lentils is a Commodity code, yet the recent state and local procurement activity shows no solicitations specifically seeking organic beluga lentils. The source records sixteen school district and state agency food service solicitations posted between February and June 2026, all seeking fresh produce (apples, bananas, carrots, broccoli, leafy greens, berries, and similar items), eggs, beverages, and general grocery items to support child nutrition and school lunch programs. None of these opportunities name lentils—organic, beluga, or otherwise—as a line item or procurement focus. The disconnect between the code's nominal scope and actual buying activity reflects the reality that state and local school nutrition programs source commodity staples through broad food service contracts keyed to USDA-reimbursable produce and protein categories, not specialty legume procurement.

School districts across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Florida dominate the recent activity, with repeat buyers including Bulloch County Schools, Early County Schools, Liberty County Schools, and Savannah-Chatham County Schools posting separate RFPs and IFBs for produce under their child nutrition programs. Representative opportunities include Northside Independent School District (San Antonio, Texas) issuing RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce with a May 7, 2026 response date; Rockwood R-VI School District (St. Louis County, Missouri) requesting grocery items including produce via ITB with an April 29, 2026 deadline; and Bulloch County Schools seeking locally grown produce within 200 miles through IFP PE55612NONST2027000000031 due May 4, 2026. The code shows no recent activity aligned with organic legume sourcing, making pursuit under this code premature until or unless state or local nutrition procurement begins itemizing specialty legumes as standalone contract line items.
