UNSPSC 50436106: Dried organic lamb's quarters spinach

The variety of organic spinach known as organic lamb's quarters spinach that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436106 Dried organic lamb's quarters spinach is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it diverge significantly from the code's nominal scope. The most recent solicitations—from Georgia Correctional Industries, the City of Edinburg (Texas), the State of Oregon, the State of Illinois, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the State of Georgia, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice—all procure dried beans (kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans) and broader institutional food-service supplies for correctional facilities, child and adult care food programs, and state agencies, not dried organic lamb's quarters spinach. The work being bought is bulk commodity staple proteins and food supplies for institutional meal preparation, delivered under firm all-inclusive pricing with palletization, delivery-location specifications, and compliance with USDA grading, FDA, and HACCP standards. Issuing bodies include state corrections departments and purchasing divisions, state agencies, a municipal government (City of Edinburg), and institutional food-program operators. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated commodity title.

Recent opportunities span Oregon, Georgia, Texas, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans with bids due June 19, 2026, offering a combined 10% evaluation preference for goods fabricated or processed entirely in Oregon or headquartered there, FOB destination to Salem with a 45-day delivery window and historical pricing of $0.493 per pound. Georgia Correctional Industries issued an RFQ (92100ERFQ0020612027) for kidney beans in increments of 880 bags with responses due October 9, 2026, requiring all-inclusive pricing with no separate freight reimbursement and delivery included in bid pricing. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products spanning approximately 382 line items across five Texas geographic areas with an extended response deadline of May 4, 2026, and an initial contract term through August 31, 2027 with two optional one-year renewals. The State of Oregon requested bids on dried black beans (triple-cleaned, USDA-graded) due August 21, 2026 for institutional use. The City of Edinburg's RFP 2026-017 for a Child and Adult Care Food Program meal service covers five supply categories—beverages, paper goods, food products, janitorial supplies, and nonfood products—for approximately 400 children daily, with a local-vendor preference for City of Edinburg bidders within 5% of the lowest price and daily delivery required Monday through Friday before noon.
