UNSPSC 50435402: Dried organic pinkeye peas

The variety of organic peas known as organic pinkeye peas that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50435402 Dried organic pinkeye peas, a Commodity code, sits at the intersection of institutional food procurement and bulk dried-bean sourcing. State and local governments buying under this code are acquiring dried beans in volume for correctional facilities, school meal programs, child-care food services, and state agency institutional kitchens. The work being solicited is straightforward commodity purchasing — vendors supply USDA-graded, food-safety-compliant dried beans in bulk quantities, typically triple-cleaned and palletized to institutional specifications, with all-inclusive pricing covering freight and delivery to state or local distribution centers or service sites.

Recent activity shows solicitations from correctional departments, state purchasing offices, and municipalities managing institutional feeding programs. The Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia Correctional Industries, the City of Edinburg Texas (Child and Adult Care Food Program), the State of Oregon, and the State of Illinois have all posted for dried beans or related institutional food items in the past six months. The Oregon ODOC solicitation (S2910000017140) requested approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans with a June 19, 2026 deadline, specifying U.S. No. 2 or better grade, triple-cleaned, FOB destination to Salem with palletized delivery within 45 days; the incumbent price was $0.493 per pound as of August 2025. Georgia Correctional Industries posted RFQ 92100ERFQ0020612027 for kidney beans in 880-bag increments due October 9, 2026, with all-inclusive bid pricing and no separate freight reimbursement. Oregon and Georgia represent the strongest recent activity, while Texas and Illinois show parallel institutional food procurement in the same family. A 5% Oregon-fabrication preference and a 5% Oregon-headquarter preference applied to the ODOC beans bid; no federal set-asides appear in these opportunities, though local-vendor preferences (such as Texas's 5% local bid preference under state law) may apply in municipal procurements.
