UNSPSC 50436851: Dried organic raddichios

The type of organic vegetable known as organic raddichios and has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436851 Dried organic raddichios, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity aligned to its stated scope. State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily purchasing dried beans—kidney beans, pinto beans, red beans, and black beans—for institutional food service and correctional-facility meal programs rather than dried radicchio. Georgia Correctional Industries, the Oregon Department of Corrections, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice have posted recent RFQs and IFBs for dried beans in bulk quantities suitable for cafeteria and prison kitchen operations, typically specifying triple-cleaned product meeting USDA grading standards with delivery on FOB or all-inclusive terms. The issuing bodies span state correctional agencies, state procurement offices acting on behalf of corrections departments, and municipal or state entities operating child and adult care food programs. The mismatch between the code's nominal commodity (dried organic radicchio) and the actual recent procurements (dried legumes for institutional cooking) suggests the code may be misclassified in state procurement systems or that radicchio procurement under this code is not currently active.

Recent opportunities cluster in Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (S2910000017140, IFB due June 19, 2026) with a 10% Oregon-based vendor preference, FOB destination to Salem, and a historical price of $0.493 per pound; the State of Oregon separately requested dried black beans triple-cleaned (S2910000017705, IFB due August 21, 2026) for institutional use. Georgia Correctional Industries posted an RFQ for kidney beans in 880-bag increments (92100ERFQ0020612027, due October 9, 2026) with all-inclusive delivery pricing and strict specification-sheet compliance requirements. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, issued a large IFB (304T26300CF) covering approximately 382 line items including dried beans, proteins, dairy, and staples across five Texas warehouse locations (original due date April 21, 2026, extended via Addendum No. 2 to May 4, 2026). The City of Edinburg, Texas, requested proposals for a Child and Adult Care Food Program including food and nonfood items (RFP2026017, due August 4, 2026) with a local-vendor preference of 5% under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051. State and local buyers in this space emphasize bulk quantity, triple-cleaning and USDA compliance, FOB destination or all-inclusive delivery, and compliance with food-safety regulations; cooperative purchasing and set-asides for in-state or local vendors appear in several recent solicitations.
