UNSPSC 50435102: Dried organic burgundy okra

The variety of organic okra known as organic burgundy okra that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50435102 Dried organic burgundy okra, a Commodity code, shows minimal direct recent activity under its stated name; the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations specifically for burgundy okra. State and local governments soliciting under dried-vegetable and institutional food-supply codes are instead purchasing bulk dried beans — kidney beans, black beans, and pinto beans — for correctional facilities, child and adult care food programs, state agency meal service, and institutional kitchen operations. The scope encompasses triple-cleaned dried legumes meeting USDA grading standards, with specifications addressing moisture content, foreign-material limits, defect tolerances, and shelf-life requirements. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and purchasing offices, state agencies operating food-service programs, local municipal governments running child nutrition programs, and specialized state procurement divisions. Georgia Correctional Industries, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the State of Oregon procurement office, the State of Illinois, the City of Edinburg Texas, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (via the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division) all appeared as solicitors in recent months.

Recent opportunities cluster in the Pacific Northwest and South. The Oregon Department of Corrections posted two separate solicitations in June 2026 for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (due June 19, 2026) and for dried black beans (due August 21, 2026); both applied Oregon-resident and Oregon-manufactured preferences totaling 10%. Georgia Correctional Industries issued an RFQ for kidney beans (92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026) specifying 880-bag increments with all-inclusive delivery pricing. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, via the Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, issued an IFB (304T26300CF, extended to May 4, 2026) covering approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products including dried beans for distribution across five Texas geographic regions. The City of Edinburg, Texas, posted an RFP (2026-017) for CACFP meal-program supplies including dried beans and proteins for 400 children daily, with local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051. Geographic activity spans Texas, Oregon, Georgia, and Illinois; the code does not show sufficient direct burgundy-okra activity to support a meaningful pursue decision based on recent state and local procurement patterns.
