UNSPSC 50461828: Canned or jarred hyacinth beans

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

UNSPSC 50461828 Canned or jarred hyacinth beans is a Commodity code capturing a narrow product line that state and local governments procure primarily as part of larger food service contracts for schools, correctional facilities, and health and human services institutions. The recent opportunities in the block show no direct solicitations for hyacinth beans; instead, state and local buyers are acquiring canned or jarred vegetables including tomatoes, mixed produce, and other canned goods as line items within broader food service RFPs and IFBs. The issuing bodies are school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI and Burke County Public Schools in Missouri and Georgia, Liberty County Board of Education and Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state departments (Illinois Veterans Home, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), and county facilities (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia). These jurisdictions purchase canned vegetables as components of comprehensive food service contracts supporting cafeterias, nutrition programs, and facility kitchens, typically bundling hyacinth beans with dozens or hundreds of other line items rather than procuring them in isolation.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and Texas, with particularly dense school district procurement in Georgia and Missouri. The most relevant recent solicitation is the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026) requesting food and consumable products including canned goods for the El Paso State Supported Living Center, with a historical contract value of $1.5 million for the prior period. The Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000016405 (posted March 23, 2026) and a similar ODOC ITB for canned tomatoes (S2910000016089, posted February 20, 2026) illustrate state demand for canned vegetables with firm, fixed unit pricing and tight delivery windows to central distribution centers. School districts across Georgia and Missouri are actively bidding comprehensive food service contracts through spring and summer 2026 with July 1 start dates, creating recurring annual cycles. The code shows minimal standalone demand; hyacinth beans compete as a line item within large, multi-category food procurement vehicles where lowest-price responsive bidders typically win individual items or grouped categories.
