UNSPSC 50436703: Dried organic chinese yams

The variety of organic yams known as organic chinese yams that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436703 Dried organic Chinese yams is a Commodity code, but the most-recent opportunities block shows no solicitations for yams of any kind—dried, organic, or otherwise. The recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code span kidney beans, black beans, pinto and red beans, and a mixed cafeteria food-products procurement; none match the code's nominal scope. Georgia Correctional Industries, the State of Oregon, the State of Illinois, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division) have issued RFQs and IFBs for institutional dried beans in bulk quantities since late May 2026, but the products solicited are distinct commodity lines. The code shows little relevant recent activity and appears to carry misaligned tagging in state procurement systems.

The geographic spread of the few visible opportunities spans Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, and Texas, with Oregon and Georgia each appearing twice in recent postings. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued an IFB for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026, with triple-cleaned U.S. No. 2 or better grade requirements, FOB destination to Salem, Oregon, and a combined 10% Oregon-processing and Oregon-headquarters evaluation preference; the historical purchase price was $0.493 per pound from incumbent contractor Intersect USA. Georgia Correctional Industries posted an RFQ for kidney beans in 880-bag increments due October 9, 2026, with all-inclusive delivery pricing and a strict specification sheet requiring complete responses without shortcut compliance language. Texas TDCJ's cafeteria food-products IFB (due May 4, 2026, extended via addendum) encompasses 382 line items across diverse food categories with FOB destination delivery to six distribution points and contract term through August 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals. If yams are part of your addressable market, this code does not reflect recent institutional purchasing activity and warrants closer review of your internal targeting data.
