UNSPSC 50423227: Dried how sweet it is corn

The variety of corn known as how sweet it is corn that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50423227 Dried how sweet it is corn, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product line with limited direct recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—dried sweetcorn as a specialty agricultural commodity—does not align with the bulk dried-bean and fresh-produce solicitations that dominate the recent opportunities tagged to this code. State and local buying under related dried-commodity and food-service codes focuses on staple proteins and produce for school nutrition, correctional facilities, and child-care meal programs rather than specialty corn products. The issuing bodies acquiring food commodities across the broader category include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois state procurement, Georgia state procurement), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Muscogee County and Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia, Douglas County in Georgia), municipal child-care agencies (City of Edinburg, Texas), and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multi-district food service.

The Oregon Department of Corrections has solicited dried pinto and red beans twice since March 2026—in March 2026 (ITB S2910000016233, due March 20, 2026) for 127,500 pounds and in June 2026 (ITB S2910000017140, due June 19, 2026) for 42,500 pounds—establishing ODOC as an active repeat buyer of dried legumes. School districts across Georgia, Missouri, Texas, and Virginia have issued multiple RFPs and ITBs for fresh produce and grocery items serving K-12 nutrition programs, with Douglas County School System coordinating a multi-district cooperative purchase through GEC Buying Cooperative covering fresh produce and eggs for 30 districts across two geographic areas with estimated spending of approximately $5.5 million annually. Texas Department of Criminal Justice and City of Edinburg have solicited comprehensive food supply packages including dried and canned goods for correctional and child-nutrition programs. The code shows activity concentrated in Texas, Georgia, Virginia, Missouri, and Oregon, with no posted opportunities specifically for dried sweetcorn.
