UNSPSC 50434113: Dried organic marjoram

The variety of organic herbs known as organic marjoram that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50434113 Dried organic marjoram (Commodity) covers dried culinary herbs and spice ingredients for institutional bulk food service, including corrections facilities, child-care programs, and state agency meal operations. State and local governments procure these items in volume for cafeteria, correctional facility, and nutrition-program meal preparation. Recent solicitations show that while the code nominally identifies organic marjoram, state agencies are actually sourcing a broader range of dried legumes and bulk food commodities — kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans, and general cafeteria staples — suggesting that dried herbs and spices fall within a wider institutional food-procurement taxonomy. The issuing bodies are primarily state correctional departments, state departments of procurement on behalf of criminal justice and institutional-use programs, municipalities operating child and adult care food programs, and state purchasing offices managing multi-agency food service contracts.

Activity is concentrated in the South and Pacific Northwest. The Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC) and the State of Oregon procured approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans with bids due June 19, 2026, and dried black beans with bids due August 21, 2026, both through the OregonBuys system and subject to Oregon fabrication and headquarters preferences. Georgia Correctional Industries solicited kidney beans (880-bag increments, RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026), and the State of Georgia issued a broader food-supplies RFQ (PE55645NONST2026000000009, due June 22, 2026). The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five geographic areas with an extended response date of May 4, 2026. The City of Edinburg, Texas, procured CACFP meal-program supplies under RFP 2026-017 (due August 4, 2026), and the State of Illinois issued a quarterly food-order solicitation (27497DVAQUINCB52821, due June 26, 2026). All deliveries are required FOB destination with all-inclusive pricing; Oregon and Georgia offerings include local- and in-state-preference or evaluation advantages.
