UNSPSC 50436867: Dried organic yu choy

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

UNSPSC 50436867 Dried organic yu choy, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly under its nominal scope. State and local governments procure dried legumes and bulk institutional food products under related codes — kidney beans, pinto beans, black beans, and mixed cafeteria food items — primarily for correctional facilities, school meal programs, and state agency food service. The issuing bodies are correctional departments, state purchasing divisions, city governments running child and adult care food programs, and departments of corrections sourcing for institutional meal service. Work solicited includes bulk dried bean procurement with strict USDA grading and triple-cleaning standards, delivery to central distribution centers or institutional warehouses in palletized lots, compliance with food safety regulations (FDA, USDA, HACCP), and pricing on an all-inclusive, FOB destination basis with no separate freight or handling charges.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, and Texas. The Georgia Department of Corrections Industries issued an RFQ on October 2, 2026, for kidney beans in 880-bag increments due October 9, 2026. The Oregon Department of Corrections Purchasing/Contracts Division requested bids for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026, with a combined 10 percent evaluation preference for Oregon-sourced and Oregon-headquartered bidders, historically priced at $0.493 per pound from incumbent Intersect USA. The City of Edinburg, Texas, issued RFP 2026-017 in August 2026 for Child and Adult Care Food Program meal supplies including protein and produce items for 400 children daily, with local-vendor preference under Texas Government Code Section 271.9051 and daily deliveries required before noon. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across multiple warehouse locations with an extended response due date of May 4, 2026. The code itself shows no direct solicitation activity for dried organic yu choy in the recent-opportunities block; all posted opportunities cite conventional dried beans and institutional food staples, not organic yu choy specifically.
