UNSPSC 50424702: Dried blanca malanga

The variety of malanga known as blanca malanga that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50424702 Dried blanca malanga is a Commodity code that in practice encompasses a broader range of dried legume and pulse procurement by state and local institutions than the code name alone suggests. Recent solicitations show state agencies and correctional facilities buying dried beans — kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, and red beans — for institutional meal preparation and food service programs. Georgia Correctional Industries, the Oregon Department of Corrections, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice all procure dried legumes under codes in this family for inmate and institutional feeding. The City of Edinburg, Texas, procures dried beans and related food products for a Child and Adult Care Food Program serving approximately 400 children daily. These buyers typically source in bulk quantities (880-bag increments or tens of thousands of pounds), with deliveries scheduled for institutional kitchens and distribution centers. Specifications emphasize USDA grading standards, triple-cleaning for contaminant removal, moisture-content limits, and food-safety compliance under FDA, USDA, and HACCP standards.

State correctional departments and food-service providers in the Pacific Northwest and Texas dominate recent activity. The Oregon Department of Corrections posted bids for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans in June 2026 with a 10% combined evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated and Oregon-headquartered bidders; deliveries were due within 45 days to Salem, Oregon, at $0.493 per pound historically. The Georgia Department of Corrections Industries solicited kidney beans in 880-bag increments with delivery due October 9, 2026, via RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027. The State of Oregon requested bids on triple-cleaned dried black beans in August 2026 with a due date of August 21, 2026. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Texas Comptroller Statewide Procurement Division, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products covering approximately 382 line items across five geographic warehouse locations with a response date of May 4, 2026 (extended via Addendum No. 2). Contracts typically run one to two years with optional renewal periods and require all-inclusive FOB destination pricing with no separate freight reimbursement.
