UNSPSC 50422107: Dried widgeon brussel sprouts

The variety of brussel sprouts known as widgeon brussel sprouts that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50422107 Dried widgeon brussel sprouts, a Commodity code, does not align with the recent state and local solicitations posted under it. The code's nominal scope—a specific frozen vegetable product—bears no relationship to the opportunities the source records: Georgia Correctional Industries is requesting kidney beans, the City of Edinburg, Texas is procuring CACFP meal-program supplies including proteins, dairy, beverages, and paper goods, the State of Oregon is bidding dried black beans, the State of Illinois is ordering weekly institutional food supplies, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice is procuring cafeteria food products spanning proteins, dairy, grains, and condiments across multiple warehouse locations. The issuing bodies span state corrections departments, state procurement offices acting on behalf of criminal justice systems, municipal governments serving child and adult care programs, and educational institutions. The work being solicited is bulk institutional food procurement for correctional facilities, school meal programs, and state agency cafeterias—commodity-level grocery and staple sourcing at scale, not a narrowly specified frozen vegetable product.

Activity concentrates in the South and Pacific Northwest. Georgia, Texas, and Oregon show the most recent solicitation volume, with Oregon's Department of Corrections and State of Georgia Purchasing issuing multiple bids for dried beans (pinto, red, and black varieties) in June and August 2026. The Oregon Department of Corrections procurement for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans, due June 19, 2026, via the OregonBuys system, included a combined 10% in-state preference (5% for goods processed entirely in Oregon, 5% for Oregon-headquartered bidders), triple-cleaned U.S. No. 2 or better grade, FOB destination to Salem, and a historical incumbent price of $0.493 per pound from Intersect USA. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB (304T-26-300CF), extended via Addendum No. 2 to May 4, 2026, encompasses approximately 382 line items across proteins, specialty entrees, dairy, grains, and condiments, with delivery to six TDCJ distribution points across Texas on FOB Destination terms and contract term through August 31, 2027 plus two optional one-year renewals. The code shows little activity aligned to its stated commodity name and substantial activity mismatched to it; the UNSPSC classification appears misapplied to the actual solicitations.
