UNSPSC 50421838: Dried monstoller wild goose beans

The variety of beans known as monstoller wild goose beans that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50421838 Dried monstoller wild goose beans, a Commodity code, describes dried bean products that state and local governments procure primarily for school nutrition and institutional food service programs. Recent solicitations show minimal direct purchasing under this specific code; instead, state and local agencies source dried beans as part of broader grocery, food supply, and produce procurement categories. The Oregon Department of Corrections has issued two recent ITBs for dried pinto and red beans in quantities of 42,500 to 127,500 pounds each, establishing the primary institutional use case. Issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Department of Human Services), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), and municipal food programs (City of Edinburg, Texas). School districts dominate recent activity, sourcing dried beans as components of larger grocery and meal-supply contracts.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia, with Texas and Georgia showing the heaviest recent school-district procurement. The Oregon Department of Corrections' March 2026 ITB S2910000016233 sought 127,500 pounds of triple-cleaned dried pinto beans at $0.43 per pound historical pricing, with delivery to Salem by March 20, 2026, and the June 2026 ITB S2910000017140 requested 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans for delivery by June 19, 2026. Fairfax County Public Schools' April 2026 Master Grocery K-12 IFB 2000004323 (due April 27, 2026) and Rockwood R-VI School District's April 2026 grocery bid (due April 29, 2026) both encompassed dried beans within 900-plus-item grocery catalogs. The City of Edinburg, Texas, CACFP meal program RFP (due August 4, 2026) included dried beans among five supply categories serving 400 children daily. School districts typically bundle dried beans with fresh produce, proteins, and shelf-stable items in competitive grocery contracts where pricing is firm and fixed for 12 months, delivery occurs multiple times weekly to school sites, and awards are made line-item-by-line-item to lowest-responsive bidders.
