UNSPSC 50433207: Dried organic biqueen corn

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

UNSPSC 50433207 Dried organic biqueen corn, a Commodity code, spans specialty dried grain products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service — primarily school districts, corrections departments, and child nutrition programs. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show little direct activity for dried biqueen corn specifically; instead, the code appears to capture a broader category of dried staple foods. The Oregon Department of Corrections has posted multiple solicitations for dried pinto and red beans (127,500 pounds and 42,500 pounds respectively) as institutional meal components, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice has solicited cafeteria food products across 382 line items including proteins, grains, and specialty items for distribution to multiple warehouse locations. These procurements reflect state corrections systems' reliance on bulk dried commodity purchases to support high-volume meal service at secure facilities.

State and local food service buyers—particularly corrections departments and school districts—dominate solicitation activity under this code tier. The Oregon Department of Corrections Purchasing/Contracts Division has been the most active recent issuer, posting Invitation to Bid (ITB) S-29100-00016233 for 127,500 pounds of dried pinto beans due March 20, 2026, and ITB S-29100-00017140 for 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026, both requiring FOB Destination delivery to the ODOC Central Distribution Center in Salem within 45 days of purchase order and compliance with U.S. No. 2 or better grade standards, triple-cleaning, and one-year minimum shelf life. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, acting on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, issued Invitation for Bid (IFB) 304T-26-300CF on May 4, 2026, encompassing approximately 382 food line items including grains and staple foods for delivery to six TDCJ distribution points across Texas, with pricing submitted on firm fixed-price sheets and delivery expected within 30 days of order. Geographic activity concentrates in Oregon and Texas corrections procurement, with no recent activity documented under this code in California, Illinois, or Georgia, though those states issue substantial food service solicitations under broader grocery and produce categories.
