UNSPSC 50433240: Dried organic merlin corn

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

UNSPSC 50433240 Dried organic merlin corn is a Commodity code for dried bean and legume products procured by state and local governments for institutional food service, including correctional facilities, child nutrition programs, and educational institutions. The recent opportunities block shows no active solicitations tagged under this specific code; instead, state and local buyers are currently seeking dried kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, and red beans through Georgia Correctional Industries, the State of Oregon, the Oregon Department of Corrections, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. These solicitations emphasize food-safety compliance (USDA grading, triple-cleaning standards, FDA and HACCP requirements), bulk institutional packaging (often 880-bag increments or multi-thousand-pound volumes), all-inclusive delivery pricing with no separate freight reimbursement, and strict specification adherence without compliance shortcuts. Issuing bodies span state correctional agencies, state departments, and city food-service programs serving vulnerable populations (children, inmates).

Geographically, the recent activity clusters in the Pacific Northwest (Oregon) and South (Georgia, Texas). Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' June 2026 IFB for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (Solicitation S2910000017705, due June 19, 2026) with a 10% combined Oregon-preference evaluation credit and a historical incumbent price of $0.493 per pound; Georgia Correctional Industries' October 2026 RFQ for kidney beans in 880-bag increments (Solicitation 92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026); and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's May 2026 IFB for cafeteria food products across multiple warehouse locations (Solicitation 304T26300CF, extended to May 4, 2026). The code itself shows no recent tagged volume, suggesting either misclassification or infrequent sourcing under this specific commodity designation; pursue only if you hold existing relationships with institutional food buyers or operate in dried-legume processing with USDA compliance infrastructure.
