UNSPSC 50436902: Dried organic cavalier peas

The variety of organic sugar peas known as organic cavalier peas that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436902 Dried organic cavalier peas is a Commodity code that reflects state and local procurement of dried legumes for institutional food service, though recent opportunities show minimal sourcing activity specifically under this code and instead reveal purchasing patterns across a broader range of dried beans and institutional food staples. State and local governments buying under this code typically source dried legumes — peas, beans, and related commodities — for correctional facilities, child and adult care food programs (CACFP), educational institutions, and other state agencies operating large-scale meal services. The issuing bodies range from state correctional departments and state education procurement divisions to municipalities managing federal nutrition programs, with Georgia Correctional Industries, the Oregon Department of Corrections, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice appearing as repeat institutional food buyers across the recent opportunity set.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, Oregon, and Texas, with Georgia Correctional Industries posting an RFQ for kidney beans due October 9, 2026, Oregon Department of Corrections requesting 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026 (with a historical price of $0.493 per pound and 10% evaluation preference for Oregon-based or Oregon-processed goods), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issuing an IFB for cafeteria food products with delivery to multiple warehouse locations, extended response deadline of May 4, 2026. The City of Edinburg, Texas posted an RFP for CACFP meal program supplies in August 2026 covering beverages, paper goods, food products, and janitorial supplies with a local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051. The State of Oregon also solicited dried black beans triple-cleaned to USDA standards in August 2026 for institutional use. These opportunities demonstrate that state and local food service procurement favors specifications tied to USDA grading standards, triple-cleaning requirements, palletized FOB destination delivery, and compliance with FDA and HACCP standards, with contract terms typically ranging from one to three years and pricing submitted on all-inclusive fixed-price schedules that incorporate transportation and fuel surcharges.
