UNSPSC 50434801: Dried organic black trumpet mushrooms

The variety of organic mushrooms known as organic black trumpet mushrooms that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50434801 Dried organic black trumpet mushrooms is a Commodity code that in practice covers a narrow range of institutional dried-bean and legume procurement by state correctional systems, education agencies, and food-service programs. State and local governments soliciting under this code are buying dried beans—pinto, red, black, and kidney varieties—in bulk quantities for correctional facilities, school meal programs, and child and adult care food programs (CACFP). The issuing bodies are primarily state correctional departments and agencies, city school districts, and state departments managing institutional food supply, with Georgia Department of Corrections, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and the City of Edinburg (Texas) appearing among recent buyers. The work involves establishing product specifications aligned with USDA grading standards (typically Grade A or U.S. No. 2 or better), triple-cleaning requirements, moisture-content and foreign-material thresholds, FDA and HACCP compliance, and minimum shelf-life requirements suitable for bulk institutional cooking. Delivery is uniformly FOB destination to state distribution centers or institutional kitchens, with packaging on pallets and specific portion-size specifications common across correctional and school food service contracts.

Recent solicitations show activity concentrated in the Pacific Northwest and South, with the State of Oregon, Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Georgia, State of Georgia Correctional Industries, Texas Department of Criminal Justice (via the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), and City of Edinburg posting bids between May and October 2026. The Oregon Department of Corrections requested approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (S2910000017140, IFB due June 19, 2026 with a 5% local-preference set-aside for Oregon-headquartered vendors); Georgia Correctional Industries solicited kidney beans in increments of 880 bags (92100ERFQ0020612027, RFQ due October 9, 2026); and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued an IFB for cafeteria food products across 382 line items including dried beans to supply five geographic warehouse areas (304T26300CF, IFB extended to May 4, 2026 with pre-bid held March 26, 2026). The State of Oregon also requested dried black beans, triple-cleaned (S2910000017705, IFB due August 21, 2026). Pricing in recent awards has ranged from $0.493 per pound (Oregon ODOC incumbent in August 2025) to all-inclusive bids incorporating freight, fuel surcharges, and delivery. Local-vendor preferences or Oregon-fabrication preferences apply in Oregon procurements; Texas uses SmartBuy administrative fees at 1.5 percent of delivered cost.
