UNSPSC 50426866: Dried yautia

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

UNSPSC 50426866 Dried yautia, a Commodity code, represents institutional bulk food procurement by state and local governments, though recent opportunities show minimal activity under this specific code. The recent solicitations tagged to this code are predominantly for dried beans of various types — kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans — rather than yautia, suggesting either catalog misclassification or the code's use as a catch-all for dried legume procurement. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under or near this code include correctional departments, school districts, state purchasing offices, and child nutrition programs. The actual work being procured centers on USDA-graded, triple-cleaned dried legumes in bulk quantities (880 bags to 42,500 pounds) for institutional meal preparation, with specifications emphasizing food safety compliance, moisture limits, foreign-material thresholds, and shelf-life requirements suitable for large-scale institutional cooking.

Activity is concentrated in Georgia and Oregon. The Georgia Department of Corrections Industries posted an RFQ for kidney beans due October 9, 2026, with 880-bag increments and all-inclusive delivery pricing. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (RFQ due June 19, 2026) with a 10% combined evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated and Oregon-headquartered bidders and a historical incumbent price of $0.493 per pound. Texas issued an IFB through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for cafeteria food products spanning multiple line items with response extended to May 4, 2026; Illinois and the City of Edinburg, Texas also show related food procurement activity. The code shows little direct institutional demand specifically for yautia; opportunities are nearly uniform for commodity beans. The issuing-body mix spans state departments, correctional systems, and child nutrition programs, but yautia itself appears absent from recent state and local solicitations.
