UNSPSC 50436825: Dried organic donqua

The type of organic vegetable known as organic donqua that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436825 Dried organic donqua (Commodity) comprises dried legumes and beans procured by state corrections departments, school districts, and other institutional food-service providers for bulk meal preparation and institutional cooking. State and local governments buy dried beans — kidney beans, pinto beans, red beans, and black beans — in quantities ranging from hundreds of bags to tens of thousands of pounds, typically triple-cleaned and graded to USDA No. 2 or better standards, for use in correctional facilities, child and adult care food programs, and state institutional kitchens. The issuing bodies are primarily state departments of corrections, state procurement divisions acting on behalf of criminal justice agencies, municipalities operating child-care meal programs, and state institutional-feeding operations. Georgia Correctional Industries, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the State of Illinois, and the State of Georgia appear as recent buyers. Solicitations typically require delivery in bulk quantities with palletized freight, all-inclusive pricing with no separate freight charges, and compliance with FDA and USDA food-safety standards; delivery windows are narrow (often 45 days from purchase order or within specific quarterly windows) and specifications are tightly defined around moisture content, foreign-material limits, and defect tolerances.

Recent activity concentrates in the Pacific Northwest and Southeast. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (IFB S2910000017705, due August 21, 2026) with a 10 percent evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated and Oregon-headquartered bidders; Georgia Correctional Industries posted an RFQ (92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026) for kidney beans in 880-bag increments; and the State of Oregon posted a separate bid for triple-cleaned black beans (S2910000017705, due August 21, 2026). The City of Edinburg, Texas, solicited food and nonfood items for a Child and Adult Care Food Program serving 400 children (RFP 2026-017, due August 4, 2026) with a local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051 for bids within 5 percent of the lowest price. The State of Illinois and the State of Georgia also posted institutional food orders covering dried beans as line items within broader quarterly food-supply solicitations. Incumbents include Intersect USA at the Oregon Department of Corrections (historical pricing $0.493 per pound as of August 2025). Response dates cluster in June through October 2026, indicating sustained activity through the fiscal year.
