UNSPSC 50421906: Dried burpees golden beets

The variety of beets known as burpees golden beets that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50421906 Dried burpees golden beets is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code cover kidney beans, dried black beans, dried pinto and red beans, and cafeteria food products spanning proteins, dairy, grains, and vegetables — none of which match the code's nominal scope of dried golden beets. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include correctional institutions (Georgia Correctional Industries, Oregon Department of Corrections), state purchasing offices (Georgia, Oregon, Illinois), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and municipal child-care programs (City of Edinburg, Texas). The work being bought ranges from bulk institutional dried legumes for prison meal programs to comprehensive cafeteria-food supply packages for corrections and child-care facilities, typically in 50–400 pound to multi-thousand-pound quantities with rigid USDA grading, food-safety, and delivery specifications.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued an IFB (S2910000017705) for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried black beans (triple-cleaned, U.S. No. 2 or better grade) with a June 19, 2026 deadline, offering a combined 10% evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated and Oregon-headquartered bidders and referencing a historical price of $0.493 per pound from incumbent Intersect USA. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, issued an IFB (304T-26-300CF) for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic areas with a May 4, 2026 deadline and an extended contract term through August 31, 2029 with optional renewals. Georgia Correctional Industries issued an RFQ (92100ERFQ0020612027) for kidney beans in 880-bag increments with an October 9, 2026 deadline. The City of Edinburg, Texas issued an RFP (2026-017) for CACFP meal-program food and nonfood supplies serving approximately 400 children ages 1–18 with a local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051 and an August 4, 2026 deadline. The code's nominal scope and current procurement activity do not align; buyers should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing opportunities under this code.
