UNSPSC 50433210: Dried organic calico belle corn

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

UNSPSC 50433210 Dried organic calico belle corn, a Commodity code, sits nominally in a narrow specialty agricultural product category but shows recent state and local procurement activity focused broadly on dried beans and institutional food supply rather than calico belle corn specifically. State and local buyers under this code are sourcing dried beans — kidney beans, pinto and red beans, and black beans — for correctional facilities, child and adult care food programs, and broader institutional meal services. The issuing bodies include state departments of corrections, state purchasing offices, city governments, and child-care program operators. These procurements typically require USDA-grade compliance, triple-cleaning or equivalent food-safety standards, bulk packaging (often palletized), and all-inclusive delivery pricing with no separate freight reimbursement. Specifications are precise: moisture-content limits, foreign-material thresholds, shelf-life minimums, and delivery windows measured in days or weekly cycles.

Recent activity spans Oregon, Georgia, Texas, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued a bid for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026, with a 10% in-state evaluation preference (5% for goods fabricated or processed in Oregon, 5% for Oregon-headquartered bidders), requiring triple-cleaned product meeting U.S. No. 2 or better grade, palletized delivery to the ODOC Central Distribution Center in Salem within 45 days, and pricing that historically ran $0.493 per pound as of August 2025 (IFB S2910000017705). Georgia Correctional Industries posted a bid for kidney beans in 880-bag increments due October 9, 2026, with all-inclusive delivery pricing and strict specification-sheet formatting requirements (no shortcuts such as "comply," "yes," or checkmarks permitted) (RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027). The City of Edinburg, Texas, solicited food and nonfood items for a Child and Adult Care Food Program serving 400 children daily, including dried beans among broader food categories, with a local-vendor preference and Texas Department of Agriculture compliance required, proposals due August 4, 2026 (RFP 2026-017). The State of Oregon also posted a bid for dried black beans, triple-cleaned, with institutional use specified (S2910000017705, due August 21, 2026). Illinois issued a quarterly food-order solicitation covering July–September without disclosed contract value or specific bean quantities (FY-27 IVHQ, due June 26, 2026).
