UNSPSC 50434002: Dried organic english peas

The variety of organic green peas known as organic english peas that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50434002 Dried organic english peas is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of actual state and local procurement activity under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code procure staple dried beans—pinto beans and mixed dried pinto and red beans—for institutional food service, not organic English peas. The Oregon Department of Corrections and state institutional food programs are purchasing dried commodity beans in bulk for correctional and school meal programs, with specifications for U.S. No. 2 or better grade, triple-cleaned product, and shelf life certification. The issuing bodies are state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), state procurement offices on behalf of other state agencies (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts for TDCJ), and municipal child nutrition programs. School districts and child care food programs round out the issuer mix, with activity concentrated among K–12 nutrition services.

The geographic spread reflects activity across Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' March 2026 ITB for approximately 127,500 pounds of dried pinto beans at $0.43 per pound (incumbent pricing from August 2025), with bid due March 20, 2026, and the City of Edinburg, Texas's July 2026 CACFP Meal Program RFP with response due August 4, 2026, which encompasses food products across five categories (proteins, cheese, breads, fruits, vegetables, snacks) to serve 400 children daily. The Texas Comptroller issued an IFB (304T26300CF) on behalf of TDCJ in May 2026 for cafeteria food products across 382 line items to multiple warehouse locations, with response deadline extended to May 4, 2026. Douglas County School System in Georgia solicited food supply and distribution services for approximately 32,000 meals daily (February 2026 RFP, SN 26-003) and fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative (February 2026 RFP, SN 26-004) serving 30 school districts across two geographic areas with estimated annual spend of $4.4 million and $1.1 million respectively. The code's actual application to organic English peas specifically remains unsupported by recent solicitation activity.
