UNSPSC 50461816: Canned or jarred china yellow beans

The variety of beans known as china yellow beans that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50461816 Canned or jarred china yellow beans is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure canned vegetables for institutional food service operations, particularly school districts and state health and human services facilities. Recent solicitations show this code captures wide-ranging canned vegetable purchasing embedded within broader food service RFPs and IFBs, though the opportunities block contains no standalone China yellow bean procurements and instead reflects the code's use as part of larger food supply contracts covering multiple canned vegetable categories alongside fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and prepared foods. School districts dominate recent activity, including Fairfax County Public Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Rockwood R-VI School District, alongside state institutional buyers such as the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Home, and Douglas County School System serving multiple districts. A single representative opportunity names the code directly: the Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S2910000016405 on March 23, 2026, for canned tomatoes (approximately 7,616 cases, USDA Grade B or better, sodium not exceeding 240 mg per 100 grams, minimum twelve-month shelf life, FOB Destination to Salem, Oregon, bid closing June 19, 2026 at 9:00 AM PST); the prior February 2026 purchase from the same agency was $13.75 per case from California Healthy Harvest.

Recent canned vegetable activity concentrates in school nutrition procurement across the Southeast and Texas. Broader food service contracts encompassing canned goods include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 (food and consumables for HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, proposals due July 13, 2026 under pricing on a firm fixed unit rate basis with a prior period historical value of $1.5 million for September 2025–August 2026), and the same agency's supplemental food and consumables IFB HHS0016792 covering 210 line items for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (maximum potential value $4.5 million over three years, initial term through August 31, 2026, with two renewal options). School districts soliciting comprehensive grocery including canned vegetables include Fairfax County Public Schools (IFB 2000004323, Master Grocery K-12, sealed bids due April 27, 2026, supplying 52 schools and distribution centers), Liberty County Board of Education (IFB for over 400 food items including canned goods, sealed bids due April 29, 2026), and Rockwood R-VI School District (grocery items bid with over 900 line items, electronic bids due April 29, 2026).
