UNSPSC 50433301 Dried organic land cress is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity captures bids for dried beans and related bulk food staples sourced for institutional meal service — primarily correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and state agency cafeteria operations. The issuing bodies include state departments of corrections, state purchasing offices procuring for multiple agencies, city governments supporting child and adult care food programs, and state education or social-service entities. Work solicited under this code centers on large-volume dried legume procurement (kidney beans, pinto beans, red beans, black beans) meeting USDA grading standards, food-safety compliance (FDA, USDA, HACCP, Good Manufacturing Practice), and strict quality specifications such as triple-cleaning and foreign-material thresholds. Suppliers typically deliver palletized product FOB destination to institutional warehouses or distribution centers, with all transportation and fuel charges included in pricing; specifications often require minimum shelf life, compliance with state-specific procurement regulations, and certifications of product origin and liability insurance.
