UNSPSC 50422100: Dried brussel sprouts

The type of vegetable known as brussel sprouts that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50422100 Dried brussel sprouts, a Class code, does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities record. The solicitations posted under this code over the past five months target dried beans — kidney beans, black beans, and pinto and red beans — for institutional food service, correctional facilities, and child and adult care programs, not dried brussel sprouts. The issuing bodies span state corrections departments, state purchasing offices acting on behalf of criminal justice and institutional feeding programs, city governments, and state agencies. Georgia Correctional Industries, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, the State of Illinois, and the City of Edinburg, Texas, appear as repeat or significant buyers in the block. Work consists of bulk procurement of dried legumes meeting USDA or equivalent grading standards, delivered in large quantities to institutional warehouses and distribution centers, with FOB destination and palletization requirements common across solicitations.

Geographic activity centers on Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with Illinois represented once. Representative recent opportunities include Georgia Correctional Industries' RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027 for kidney beans due October 9, 2026, with deliveries in 880-bag increments and all-inclusive pricing; the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB S2910000017140 for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026, featuring a combined 10 percent in-state preference (5 percent for Oregon processing, 5 percent for Oregon headquarters) and a historical price point of $0.493 per pound; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products covering 382 line items including dried beans and legumes, with response due May 4, 2026, extended via addendum from April 21, 2026, and contract term through August 31, 2027 with two optional one-year renewals. The code shows little relevant activity to dried brussel sprouts as described in the code name.
