UNSPSC 50434305: Dried organic rowel trero kohlrabi

The variety of organic kohlrabi known as organic rowel trero kohlrabi that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50434305 Dried organic rowel trero kohlrabi (Commodity) shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and the actual work state and local governments are buying under this code. Recent solicitations tagged to this code overwhelmingly procure institutional dried beans — kidney beans, pinto beans, red beans, and black beans — for correctional facilities, child-care food programs, and state agency meal services, not kohlrabi or specialty produce. Georgia Correctional Industries, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, the State of Illinois, and the City of Edinburg, Texas, have all posted requests for dried legumes in bulk quantities suitable for high-volume institutional cooking. The work involves procurement of USDA-graded or triple-cleaned dried beans meeting food-safety and institutional meal-service standards, with delivery to central distribution points or meal-preparation facilities on FOB destination terms. Issuing bodies are exclusively state departments, state correctional agencies, state purchasing offices acting on behalf of criminal-justice or food-service operations, and municipal governments operating child-care or nutrition programs. The code does not reflect current activity in produce procurement or kohlrabi supply chains.

Activity concentrates in the South and Pacific Northwest. Georgia Correctional Industries posted solicitation 92100ERFQ0020612027 for kidney beans due October 9, 2026, requiring delivery in 880-bag increments on an all-inclusive pricing basis with electronic responses in PDF format and strict specification-sheet completion rules. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued solicitation S2910000017140 for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans, due June 19, 2026, with a combined 10 percent evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated goods and Oregon-headquartered bidders, triple-cleaned beans to U.S. No. 2 or better grade, FOB destination to Salem within 45 days, and a historical price of $0.493 per pound. Texas and Illinois also posted weekly or quarterly food-supply solicitations covering dried beans among other institutional staples. The City of Edinburg, Texas, requested proposals under RFP 2026-017 for child-care meal-program supplies including dried beans and other food products serving approximately 400 children daily, with a Texas local-vendor preference applying to bids within 5 percent of the lowest bid. This code warrants review — if it represents a data-entry or classification error at the state or local level, reclassification or vendor education may be needed; if it reflects intentional use of a produce-category code for legume procurement, the activity signal is genuine but the taxonomy misalignment is substantial.
