UNSPSC 50423238: Dried maple sweet corn

The variety of corn known as maple sweet corn that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50423238 Dried maple sweet corn is a Commodity code that in practice captures institutional bulk procurement of dried legumes and related staple food products for state and local correctional, educational, and food-service operations. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show a pronounced shift away from the code's nominal scope — maple sweet corn appears in none of the six documented opportunities posted since May 2026. Instead, purchasing bodies are actively buying dried beans (kidney, black, pinto, and red varieties), packaged food products for correctional and child-care meal programs, and broad cafeteria supplies. State purchasing offices, correctional departments, school districts, and municipal food programs are the primary issuing bodies. Georgia Correctional Industries, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, the State of Illinois, and the City of Edinburg, Texas all posted solicitations during this period. The work spans specification-driven commodity purchasing (triple-cleaned beans meeting USDA grading standards), multi-line-item food supply contracts for institutional kitchens, and compliance-heavy procurement requiring FDA, USDA, and HACCP certification and delivery schedules coordinated with meal preparation cycles.

Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois dominate recent activity under this code. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026, with a combined 10% Oregon-preference applied (5% for Oregon-fabricated goods, 5% for Oregon-headquartered bidders) and an incumbent historical price of $0.493 per pound. Georgia Correctional Industries issued an RFQ (solicitation 92100ERFQ0020612027) for kidney beans in 880-bag increments with delivery included in all-inclusive pricing, due October 9, 2026. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic warehouse locations, with responses extended to May 4, 2026; awards go to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder per line item with delivery FOB destination to six TDCJ distribution points and a 1.5 percent Texas SmartBuy administrative fee applied to all purchases. The City of Edinburg, Texas, solicited food and nonfood items for a Child and Adult Care Food Program serving 400 children under RFP 2026-017 with a local-vendor preference (5% price advantage within Edinburg city limits under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051) and daily delivery required before noon. The code shows no recent activity in states beyond this set.
