UNSPSC 50426901: Dried bikini peas

The variety of sugar peas known as bikini peas that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50426901 Dried bikini peas, a Commodity code, represents a niche procurement line within state and local food service purchasing, primarily appearing in school nutrition, correctional facility meal programs, and child nutrition service contexts where commodity-grade dried legumes meet federal nutrition and safety standards. The code shows minimal recent activity, with one direct opportunity explicitly tagged to dried pinto and red beans rather than bikini peas; most of the indexed opportunities under this code span broader grocery, produce, and food supply solicitations where dried peas may appear as a line item within larger meal-program buys but are not the primary focus. State and local buyers in this space—including the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and multiple school districts across Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia—procure dried legumes as components of meal programs serving thousands daily, with pricing typically quoted per pound, delivery to central warehouses or distribution centers on palletized FOB loads, and compliance required with USDA grade standards, FDA food safety, and HACCP protocols.

The geographic distribution reflects activity primarily in the South (Georgia, Missouri, Texas) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with school districts representing the dominant buyer type alongside state corrections and child nutrition programs. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000017140 (June 2026, due June 19, 2026) soliciting 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans at $0.493 per pound historical pricing; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB 304T-26-300CF (May 2026, due May 4, 2026, extended via addendum) for cafeteria food products spanning 382 line items across multiple Texas distribution points; Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 (April 2026, due April 27, 2026) for Master Grocery K-12 serving 45 schools plus distribution kitchens; and Rockwood R-VI School District's grocery items solicitation (March 2026, due April 29, 2026) covering over 900 line items for 6,900 daily lunch participants. Dried bikini peas as a specific commodity do not appear in any of the posted recent opportunities; the code likely sees sporadic low-volume procurement folded into larger meal-service contracts rather than standalone bids.
