UNSPSC 50424622: Dried russian red mustard lettuce

The variety of lettuce known as russian red mustard lettuce that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50424622 Dried russian red mustard lettuce, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The source includes no solicitations for dried russian red mustard lettuce; instead, recent opportunities under this code span institutional dried-bean purchases — kidney beans, black beans, and pinto-and-red-bean combinations — along with broader food-service procurements for correctional facilities, child care programs, and state agencies. State and local buyers in this space typically issue RFQs and IFBs for bulk food supplies to correctional departments, state warehouses, educational institutions, and meal-service programs. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections (Georgia, Oregon, Illinois), state purchasing offices (Georgia, Oregon), city municipal governments (Edinburg, Texas), and state agencies executing food-service contracts on behalf of institutional customers such as the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia, Oregon, and Texas. The Georgia Department of Corrections issued RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027 (due October 9, 2026) for kidney beans in 880-bag increments with all-inclusive delivery pricing. The Oregon Department of Corrections Purchasing Division posted bid S2910000017705 (due August 21, 2026) for triple-cleaned dried black beans to institutional specification, and earlier RFQ S2910000017140 (due June 19, 2026) for approximately 42,500 pounds of pinto and red beans with a 10% Oregon-preference evaluation and historical pricing at $0.493 per pound. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, issued Invitation for Bid 304T-26-300CF (due May 4, 2026, extended via addendum) covering approximately 382 food line items including proteins, grains, dairy, and condiments for five geographic distribution points; the initial contract term runs through August 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals. A CACFP meal-service RFP from the City of Edinburg, Texas (RFP2026017, due August 4, 2026) requested food and nonfood supplies for 400 children daily, with local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051. The code's recent activity reflects procurement of dried legumes and prepared foods for high-volume institutional consumption rather than fresh or specialty greens, and opportunities are strongest in the Southeast and Pacific Northwest.
