UNSPSC 50421812: Dried brown lazy wife beans

The variety of beans known as brown lazy wife beans that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50421812 Dried brown lazy wife beans (Commodity) represents a narrow product line within institutional food procurement, though recent state and local opportunities show the code receives minimal targeted solicitation activity. When state and local governments do procure dried beans under this or related commodity codes, they typically bundle them within broader food supply contracts serving correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and child care food service operations rather than as standalone line items. The issuing bodies span state corrections departments, school districts of varying sizes, and municipal child care programs across multiple regions.

The Oregon Department of Corrections has been the primary repeat buyer, issuing separate ITBs for dried pinto beans (approximately 42,500 to 127,500 pounds per solicitation) in March 2026 and June 2026, with delivery to the ODOC Central Distribution Center in Salem on an FOB destination basis and triple-cleaned beans meeting U.S. No. 2 or better standards. The City of Edinburg, Texas Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) included dried beans within a broader RFP for food and nonfood items due August 4, 2026, serving approximately 400 children daily across five supply categories. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice Statewide Procurement Division issued a cafeteria food products IFB (304T26300CF, response due May 4, 2026) encompassing approximately 382 line items across multiple food categories delivered to six TDCJ distribution points; the Rockwood R-VI School District Child Nutrition Services in Missouri solicited over 900 grocery line items including snacks and grains for the 2026-27 school year (response due April 29, 2026); and the Illinois Department of Human Services issued a quarterly weekly food order (FY-27 IVHQ, due June 26, 2026) without detailed specifications in available documents. Oregon, Texas, Missouri, Illinois, and Georgia account for the most recent activity, though the code itself appears underutilized relative to broader institutional food procurement volume under higher-tier family and class codes that capture mixed grocery and staple sourcing.
