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; state and local governments buy under it as part of broader food procurement for institutional food service operations, particularly through state-managed facilities, school districts, and other government entities operating dining and nutrition programs. The recent solicitations tagged to this code show no specific demand for hyacinth beans but instead reflect general food staple procurement across large volumes of shelf-stable food items, prepared foods, and food service consumables. Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia school districts, Oregon Department of Corrections, and Ben Hill County Schools have posted solicitations for food consumables in the past four months; the pattern suggests the code may be applied categorically to institutional food buys regardless of the specific line items actually being requested. When hyacinth beans do appear in scope, they are one item within multicommodity food contracts serving state hospitals, supported living centers, correctional facilities, and school nutrition programs.

Activity spans Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with Texas showing the heaviest recent volume—the HHSC has issued multiple IFBs for supplemental food and consumables ($4.5 million over three years including renewals, with an earlier historical value of $1.5 million for fiscal 2026) and recurring smaller IFBs for individual facility procurement such as Lufkin and El Paso State Supported Living Centers. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumables IFB HHS0016792V2 (210 line items, responses due March 19, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' canned tomatoes IFB (7,616 cases, due June 19, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools' food bid (multiple categories across four school locations, bids due June 15, 2026). Issuing bodies are state departments, county boards of education, and school districts; delivery windows typically require fulfillment within seven days of order receipt or 30 days of purchase order issuance, and F.O.B. Destination pricing is standard. The code shows active procurement but little concrete demand signal specific to hyacinth beans themselves.
