UNSPSC 50431921: Dried organic regalia beets

The variety of organic beets known as organic regalia beets that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50431921 Dried organic regalia beets, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominal scope — dried organic specialty beets — does not align with the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code instead cover dried beans (kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans), institutional food service programs (child and adult care food programs, correctional facility cafeteria procurement), and broader food-supply contracts that encompass multiple product categories. The issuing bodies span state correctional agencies (Georgia Correctional Industries, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice via the Comptroller's office), state procurement offices (Oregon, Illinois, Georgia), and municipal governments (City of Edinburg, Texas). Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and Pacific Northwest, with Georgia, Oregon, and Texas showing the most recent solicitation volume.

Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' June 2026 bid for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (triple-cleaned, U.S. No. 2 or better grade, FOB destination Salem, Oregon, due June 19, 2026), which applied a combined 10% evaluation preference for goods fabricated or processed in Oregon and bidders headquartered in Oregon; Georgia Correctional Industries' October 2026 RFQ for kidney beans in 880-bag increments with delivery included in all-inclusive pricing (due October 9, 2026); and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's May 2026 IFB for cafeteria food products spanning 382 line items including proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, and staples across five geographic Texas warehouse areas (due May 4, 2026, extended via addendum). The mismatch between the code's stated commodity and the beans-focused solicitations suggests either miscoding in the state and local source system or that the code is used as a catchall for dried legume procurement; vendors should confirm actual commodity demand through direct issuer contact before pursing opportunities under this classification.
