UNSPSC 50434507: Dried organic split yellow lentils

The variety of organic lentils known as organic split yellow lentils that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50434507 Dried organic split yellow lentils is a Commodity code with no recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to this product line. Recent solicitations posted under or near this code span institutional food service procurement—child nutrition programs, school districts, correctional facilities, and state cafeteria operations—but the opportunities documented involve broader food supply categories (fresh produce, dried beans of unspecified origin or processing type, grocery staples, and cafeteria entrees) rather than specifically organic or split yellow lentil products. The City of Edinburg, Texas CACFP meal program (RFP 2026-017, due August 4, 2026) encompasses five supply categories including food products but does not itemize lentils; the Oregon Department of Corrections solicitation (S2910000016233, closed March 20, 2026) requested dried pinto beans and a follow-up (S2910000017140, closed June 19, 2026) again specified pinto and red beans with no mention of lentils. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria procurement (IFB 304T-26-300CF, due May 4, 2026) listed approximately 382 line items across proteins, grains, vegetables, and staples but no lentils appear in the disclosed scope. School districts across Fairfax County, Virginia; Rockwood R-VI in Missouri; Muscogee County, Georgia; and Savannah-Chatham County, Georgia all solicited fresh produce and grocery items with no specific lentil line items evident in the summaries provided.

The absence of organic or lentil-specific opportunities in the recent state and local pipeline reflects either procurement classification mismatch (dried legumes may be tagged differently across jurisdictions) or minimal current demand for this particular product at the state and local level. Vendors focused on organic or specialty legume supply should verify whether state and local food service operations classify lentils under broader dried goods or commodity codes, confirm ordering patterns directly with institutional food service directors and school nutrition programs, and monitor cooperative purchasing vehicles (such as the GEC Buying Cooperative active in Georgia school procurement) that may aggregate multi-district produce and staple purchases where organic or specialty products could gain traction.
