UNSPSC 50421907: Dried cheltenham green top beets

The variety of beets known as cheltenham green top beets that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50421907 Dried cheltenham green top beets is a Commodity code, but the most recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not involve cheltenham green top beets or beets of any kind. Instead, the solicitations tracked against this code cover dried beans in various forms — kidney beans, black beans, and pinto and red beans — procured by state correctional agencies, state departments of corrections, child care programs, and food service operations. The work spans institutional bulk food procurement for meal preparation, warehouse fulfillment, and cafeteria supply across multiple distribution points. Issuing bodies include Georgia Correctional Industries, the State of Oregon, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the City of Edinburg Texas (for a Child and Adult Care Food Program), the State of Georgia, the State of Illinois, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts. The code shows misalignment between its nominal commodity scope and the actual procurement activity being tagged to it.

Recent opportunities reflect significant activity in the Pacific Northwest and South. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued an IFB for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans with a due date of June 19, 2026, specifying triple-cleaned, U.S. No. 2 or better grade, palletized delivery to Salem with a 10% evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated and Oregon-headquartered vendors and a historical purchase price of $0.493 per pound. Georgia Correctional Industries posted an eRFQ (92100ERFQ0020612027) for kidney beans in 880-bag increments, due October 9, 2026, requiring all-inclusive pricing with delivery included and no separate freight reimbursement. The City of Edinburg issued RFP2026017 for Child and Adult Care Food Program meal service supporting approximately 400 children, due August 4, 2026, with a local-vendor preference under Texas law and five supply categories including food products, beverages, paper goods, janitorial supplies, and nonfood items. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Texas Comptroller, issued an IFB (304T26300CF) for cafeteria food products across multiple line items and five geographic warehouse areas, with the response deadline extended via addendum to May 4, 2026, and contract term through August 31, 2027 plus two optional renewal years. A State of Oregon solicitation for dried black beans triple-cleaned, posted August 7, 2026 with a due date of August 21, 2026, and a State of Illinois solicitation for quarterly weekly food orders (FY-27 IVHQ, due June 26, 2026) also tracked to this code. Geographic spread includes Oregon, Georgia, Texas, and Illinois; the code does not reflect recent opportunities for the commodity it nominally describes.
