UNSPSC 50426865: Dried yampi

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

UNSPSC 50426865 Dried yampi (Commodity) covers dried legumes and specialty starches procured by state and local institutions for bulk food service and meal programs, though the recent opportunities block shows no direct yampi solicitations—instead capturing parallel dried-bean procurement activity that state purchasing offices classify under related commodity codes. State and local governments buy dried beans (pinto, red, black, kidney) for correctional facilities, child and adult care food programs, school cafeterias, and other institutional meal operations. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and agriculture, state procurement divisions acting on behalf of multiple agencies, city governments administering child nutrition programs, and correctional industries divisions. The work entails specifying product grade, moisture content, foreign-material thresholds, triple-cleaning standards, packaging (palletization and pallet type), shelf-life requirements, compliance with USDA and FDA standards, and FOB delivery terms to institutional distribution centers or meal-service sites.

The most active recent procurement region is the Pacific Northwest, with the Oregon Department of Corrections soliciting approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (S2910000017140, IFB, due June 19, 2026) and the State of Oregon soliciting dried black beans, triple-cleaned (S2910000017705, due August 21, 2026). Concurrent activity spans Georgia Correctional Industries (kidney beans, RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026, in increments of 880 bags), the City of Edinburg, Texas (food and nonfood items including proteins and staples for a CACFP meal program serving 400 children, RFP 2026-017, due August 4, 2026), and the State of Illinois (weekly food supply for July-September, solicitation 27497DVAQUINCB52821, due June 26, 2026). Oregon applies a combined 10% evaluation preference for goods fabricated or processed in-state and for in-state headquarters; Georgia enforces strict specification compliance and all-inclusive delivery pricing with no separate freight reimbursement. Recent response dates cluster in June through October 2026.
