UNSPSC 50426105: Dried iceplant spinach

The variety of new zrealand spinach known as iceplant spinach that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50426105 Dried iceplant spinach (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local solicitations posted under this code. The most recent opportunities name kidney beans, dried black beans, dried pinto and red beans, and cafeteria food products — none of which are iceplant spinach. State and local procurement offices, particularly correctional systems and child nutrition programs, are actively soliciting dried legumes and institutional food supplies, but the code's nominal scope (dried iceplant spinach) does not match what is actually being purchased in the posted records. The issuing bodies include state correctional agencies (Georgia Correctional Industries, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), a state nutrition program (State of Illinois), state institutional purchasing (State of Oregon), and a municipal child nutrition program (City of Edinburg, Texas). These jurisdictions procure dried beans, proteins, dairy, grains, and related cafeteria staples in bulk for institutional meal service.

Activity appears concentrated in Texas, Oregon, Georgia, and Illinois, with opportunities posted between May and October 2026. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, on behalf of TDCJ, issued Invitation for Bid 304T26300CF for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic TDCJ warehouse locations, with the response deadline extended via addendum to May 4, 2026. The Oregon Department of Corrections Purchasing/Contracts Division solicited approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans through the OregonBuys system with responses due June 19, 2026, offering a combined 10% evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-headquartered suppliers. Georgia Correctional Industries requested bids (RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027) for kidney beans in increments of 880 bags with responses due October 9, 2026. The code as tagged shows material mismatch with recent procurement activity; if pursuing this UNSPSC category, confirm the actual commodity codes under which these dried legume and institutional food procurements are being solicited.
