UNSPSC 50434705: Dried organic islena malanga

The variety of organic malanga known as organic islena malanga that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50434705 Dried organic islena malanga, a Commodity code, shows limited direct relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally designates a specific dried root vegetable product, but the most recent opportunities posted under or near this classification involve different dried legumes and broader food-supply categories. State and local governments are actively soliciting dried beans—kidney beans, black beans, and pinto and red beans—for institutional food service at correctional facilities, schools, and child-care programs, along with comprehensive cafeteria-supply contracts spanning proteins, grains, dairy, and produce. These solicitations originate from state departments of corrections and education, municipal school districts and city child-care programs, and state purchasing offices acting on behalf of agencies or institutions. The work involves bulk procurement of food products meeting USDA grading standards, FDA compliance, and food-safety certifications suitable for high-volume institutional cooking and meal preparation.

Recent opportunities are concentrated in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections sought approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026, under OregonBuys with a 10% in-state preference (5% for Oregon manufacturing, 5% for Oregon headquarters); the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFB 304T-26-300CF through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division for cafeteria food products across five geographic areas with response due May 4, 2026 (extended via addendum from April 21); Georgia Correctional Industries posted RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027 for kidney beans in 880-bag increments due October 9, 2026; and the City of Edinburg, Texas, solicited RFP 2026-017 for CACFP meal-program supplies serving 400 children daily with a local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051. The code itself reports no recent direct procurement of dried islena malanga from state or local issuers.
