UNSPSC 50433205: Dried organic aspen corn

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

UNSPSC 50433205 Dried organic aspen corn, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not align with its nominal scope: the state and local market for dried organic aspen corn itself remains opaque, but the opportunities posted under the code instead solicit dried beans (kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans), institutional food supplies, and CACFP meal-program items across correctional facilities, state agencies, and municipal child-care programs. Georgia Correctional Industries and the Oregon Department of Corrections dominate the recent dried-legume procurements, with kidney beans and triple-cleaned dried beans specified for institutional bulk cooking and meal service. The Code does not report whether aspen corn specifically is being sought; the mismatch between the code name and the opportunities actually posted suggests either tagging error or dormancy in the aspen corn category itself.

The geographic spread of recent activity centers on Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued an IFB for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026, with a 10 percent evaluation preference (5 percent for goods fabricated or processed entirely in Oregon, 5 percent for Oregon-headquartered bidders), palletized FOB destination delivery to Salem, Oregon, and historical pricing at $0.493 per pound. Georgia Correctional Industries posted an RFQ for kidney beans (880-bag increments, delivery included in bid pricing) due October 9, 2026, and the State of Oregon solicited dried black beans, triple-cleaned, due August 21, 2026. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, issued an IFB for cafeteria food products across multiple warehouse locations with a response deadline extended to May 4, 2026, encompassing 382 line items including proteins, dairy, grains, and condiments for FOB Destination delivery to six TDCJ distribution points. Given the mismatch between the code's stated commodity and the opportunities actually posted, this code should be treated as inactive for aspen corn procurement purposes unless future opportunities clarify the intended scope.
