UNSPSC 50435404: Dried organic white acre peas

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

UNSPSC 50435404 Dried organic white acre peas is a Commodity code that represents a narrow food item designation with minimal recent procurement activity in state and local government. The source shows no active solicitations specifically requesting dried organic white acre peas; instead, recent opportunities tag the code alongside broader dried-bean and food-supply procurements where dried peas are one line item among hundreds spanning proteins, grains, produce, dairy, and staples for institutional food service. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two ITBs for dried pinto and red beans (127,500 pounds in March 2026 and 42,500 pounds in June 2026, both FOB destination to Salem with U.S. No. 2 or better grade standards and triple-cleaned certification), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice procured cafeteria food products across 382 line items including various dried beans and legumes as one component of a multi-category IFB awarded on best-value terms. These procurement patterns show that state correctional agencies and large institutional food service operations (school districts, child nutrition programs) source dried legumes as commodity bulk items, not as organic specialty variants, and consolidate them into broader food supply contracts rather than line-item-specific solicitations. Issuing bodies include state corrections departments, school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), municipal child nutrition programs (City of Edinburg, Texas), and state food-service operations.

Geographic activity is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Oregon, and Virginia, with the heaviest recent volume in Texas and Georgia school districts and state agencies. The Oregon Department of Corrections' two recent dried-bean solicitations (due March 20 and June 19, 2026) and the Texas Comptroller's IFB 304T-26-300CF for TDCJ cafeteria food products (extended to May 4, 2026 response deadline) represent the closest available proxies to legume procurement; neither solicitation breaks out dried organic white acre peas as a separate line item or specification. The State of Illinois issued a quarterly food order (due June 26, 2026) under FY-27 IVHQ that references brand-specific items, and the State of Georgia issued food-supply and produce ITBs in May and April 2026. The code shows little standalone procurement demand; vendors pursuing this category should monitor institutional food-service RFPs and IFBs from state corrections, school districts, and public-health agencies where dried legumes appear as component items within larger meal-program contracts, and position capability as a secondary or primary supplier within multi-item food frameworks rather than expect narrow dried-pea-only opportunities.
