UNSPSC 50426854: Dried spoonwart

The type of vegetable known as spoonwart that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50426854 Dried spoonwart, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope—dried spoonwart—does not align with the state and local opportunities appearing in recent procurement records. The most recent opportunities solicited under this code identifier are for kidney beans (Georgia Correctional Industries), dried black beans (State of Oregon), dried pinto and red beans (Oregon Department of Corrections), and broader food-service categories including fresh fruits, vegetables, proteins, and beverages for child-care and institutional meal programs (City of Edinburg, Texas; State of Illinois; State of Georgia; Texas Department of Criminal Justice). None of these solicitations concern spoonwart as a distinct commodity. The mismatch suggests either a coding error in the underlying state and local procurement system or that the code has been repurposed or misapplied to capture legume and institutional food procurement more broadly.

If the code is active for general dried-legume or institutional bulk-food procurement, issuing bodies include state corrections agencies (Georgia, Oregon), state purchasing offices acting on behalf of criminal-justice systems (Texas), municipal food-service programs (City of Edinburg), and state warehouse and distribution operations (Georgia, Oregon, Illinois). Recent opportunities span Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois, with Oregon and Texas showing the heaviest activity in the past quarter. Representative procurements include the Oregon Department of Corrections' June 2026 IFB for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans with FOB-destination delivery to Salem within 45 days, a 10% evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-headquartered vendors, and historical pricing of $0.493 per pound; the Georgia Correctional Industries' October 2026 RFQ for kidney beans in 880-bag increments with electronic PDF submission required and delivery included in all-inclusive bid pricing; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's May 2026 IFB for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic distribution points with firm, fixed pricing on FOB-destination terms and contract terms extending through August 31, 2027 with two optional one-year renewals.
