UNSPSC 50433203: Dried organic ambrosia corn

The variety of organic corn known as organic ambrosia corn that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50433203 Dried organic ambrosia corn (Commodity) represents institutional bulk procurement of dried legumes and grains for state correctional facilities, child nutrition programs, and other state agency meal services. State and local governments soliciting under this code are purchasing dried beans, pinto beans, black beans, kidney beans, and similar commodity proteins in large quantities—typically hundreds or thousands of pounds—for institutional cooking and meal preparation. The issuing bodies are state corrections departments, state procurement offices coordinating on behalf of correctional and institutional users, municipal food service programs, and state agencies supporting child and adult care meal programs. Work solicited includes specification-driven procurement of triple-cleaned, USDA-graded dried legumes meeting food-safety and quality standards, with delivery in bulk (palletized, FOB destination) to institutional distribution centers or meal-preparation kitchens.

Georgia Correctional Industries posted an RFQ on October 2, 2026 (92100ERFQ0020612027) seeking kidney beans in 880-bag increments due October 9, 2026, with delivery included in all-inclusive bid pricing.
