UNSPSC 50433224: Dried organic golden cross bantam corn

The variety of organic corn known as organic golden cross bantam corn that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50433224 Dried organic golden cross bantam corn, a Commodity code, nominally addresses specialty dried corn varieties, but recent state and local solicitations under this code show little activity aligned with that specific product. Instead, the code tags a broader range of institutional food procurement — dried beans (pinto, red, black, kidney), proteins, dairy, grains, and kitchen supplies — for correctional facilities, child and adult care programs, and state educational institutions. The work involves sourcing bulk food commodities meeting USDA or state food-safety standards, packaging in institutional quantities (often palletized for bulk distribution), compliance with nutritional and regulatory requirements such as CACFP or HACCP standards, and delivery on tight schedules to central distribution points or program sites. Issuing bodies include state correctional and purchasing agencies (Georgia Department of Corrections, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state procurement offices acting on behalf of customer agencies, municipalities (City of Edinburg, Texas), and institutional food-service programs. The code shows no discernible concentration among repeat buyers; each recent opportunity came from a different issuing body.

Recent activity spans Oregon, Georgia, Texas, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two separate bids — one for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026, with a historical price of $0.493 per pound and a combined 10% Oregon-preference evaluation advantage, and another for dried black beans due August 21, 2026, both specifying triple-cleaned product and USDA grading standards. Georgia Correctional Industries solicited kidney beans in 880-bag increments due October 9, 2026, requiring all-inclusive delivery pricing with no separate freight reimbursement. The City of Edinburg, Texas, issued RFP 2026-017 in August 2026 for a Child and Adult Care Food Program meal supply covering beverages, paper goods, proteins, janitorial supplies, and nonfood items for 400 children daily, with a local-vendor preference of 5% within City of Edinburg, and evaluation weighting cost at 30%, qualifications at 25%, technical approach at 25%, and menu quality at 20%. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across 382 line items with delivery to six Texas warehouse locations, response due May 4, 2026 following an extension via addendum, and a 1.5 percent Texas SmartBuy administrative fee on all purchases. The State of Illinois solicited a quarterly weekly food order for July–September 2026 with bids due June 26, 2026.
