UNSPSC 50431834: Dried organic lima beans

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

UNSPSC 50431834 Dried organic lima beans is a Commodity-level code that state and local governments actually procure across a broader range of dried bean varieties—including pinto, red, black, and kidney beans—for institutional food service and meal programs. The recent solicitations show that purchasing bodies are acquiring dried beans in bulk for correctional facilities, child and adult care food programs, state agency kitchens, and criminal-justice institutional dining, typically specified to USDA standards or above with requirements for triple-cleaning, moisture limits, and acceptable defect thresholds. Issuing bodies include state correctional agencies, state departments of corrections, state purchasing divisions acting on behalf of criminal-justice departments, city and municipal governments supporting child-care meal programs, and standalone state-agency meal-service operations. Georgia and Oregon emerge as repeat active buyers, with Georgia Correctional Industries and the Oregon Department of Corrections both soliciting within the past four months.

Recent opportunities span multiple geographies and notice types. Georgia Correctional Industries issued RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027 for kidney beans due October 9, 2026, requiring 880-bag increments with delivery included in all-inclusive pricing. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (S2910000017140) with bids due June 19, 2026, applying a combined 10% Oregon-content evaluation preference (5% for goods fabricated or processed entirely in Oregon, 5% for Oregon-headquartered bidders), palletization on four-way wooden pallets FOB destination to Salem, and a historical price benchmark of $0.493 per pound. The State of Oregon also requested bids for dried black beans, triple-cleaned (S2910000017705, due August 21, 2026), for institutional use.
