UNSPSC 50424611: Dried butterhead lettuces

The variety of lettuce known as butterhead lettuces that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50424611 Dried butterhead lettuces (Commodity) covers institutional food procurement, but the recent state and local opportunities under this code show no activity for the namesake product. Instead, the code is tagged against solicitations for dried beans—kidney beans, black beans, and pinto and red beans—along with broader cafeteria and meal-program food supplies. State and local buyers under this code include correctional departments (Georgia Correctional Industries, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state purchasing offices procuring for institutional use, and municipalities managing child and adult care food programs. The work involves bulk procurement of dried legumes and institutional food staples meeting USDA or FDA grade standards, triple-cleaning specifications, and compliance with food-safety regulations; deliveries are FOB destination to institutional distribution centers or daily to meal-service sites, with pricing structured as all-inclusive fixed rates that absorb transportation and fuel surcharges.

Recent opportunities span Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (S2910000017140, IFB, due June 19, 2026), with a 10% combined evaluation preference for Oregon fabrication and headquarters and a historical price of $0.493 per pound; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the State Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five geographic areas with responses due May 4, 2026 (extended via addendum), encompassing 382 line items including proteins, dairy, grains, and condiments. Georgia Correctional Industries posted an RFQ for kidney beans (92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026) specifying 880-bag increments with all-inclusive delivery pricing. The City of Edinburg, Texas, solicited food and nonfood items for a Child and Adult Care Food Program serving 400 children daily (RFP2026017, due August 4, 2026) with a local-vendor preference under Texas law. The code shows no relevant recent activity in this tier.
