UNSPSC 50431803: Dried organic azuki beans

The variety of organic beans known as organic azuki beans that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50431803 Dried organic azuki beans is a Commodity code that encompasses bulk dried legume procurement for institutional food service — including correctional facilities, child-care programs, higher education, and state agencies. Recent state and local opportunities under this code show a pattern of purchasing dried beans (kidney, pinto, red, and black varieties) in large quantities for meal preparation, with specifications emphasizing USDA grading standards, triple-cleaning for contaminant removal, and compliance with food-safety regulations. Issuing bodies are primarily state correctional departments and state procurement offices acting on behalf of institutional customers; school districts and municipalities also appear as food-service buyers. The work involves responding to sealed-bid or RFQ solicitations with firm, all-inclusive pricing that encompasses delivery, fuel surcharges, and palletization to distribution points.

Activity appears concentrated in the Pacific Northwest and Georgia, with Oregon Department of Corrections and the State of Georgia as repeat solicitors. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued a bid for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (S2910000017705) due June 19, 2026, requiring triple-cleaned product, FOB delivery to Salem within 45 days of purchase order, and offering 10% evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-headquartered vendors; the incumbent was named at $0.493 per pound. The State of Georgia's Georgia Correctional Industries solicited kidney beans (92100ERFQ0020612027) in 880-bag increments, RFQ due October 9, 2026, with all-inclusive delivery pricing and strict specification-sheet compliance requirements. The City of Edinburg, Texas, issued an RFP (RFP2026017) for Child and Adult Care Food Program supplies including dried beans as part of a broader food bundle serving 400 children daily, due August 4, 2026, with local-vendor preference and Texas Department of Agriculture compliance mandates. A state-level Georgia procurement (PE55645NONST2026000000009) for food supplies and kitchen products was posted May 15, 2026, due June 22, 2026, indicating institutional demand for commodity food items across state prison and agency systems.
