UNSPSC 50462211: Canned or jarred winter-over bunching onions

The variety of bunching onions known as winter-over bunching onions that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50462211 Canned or jarred winter-over bunching onions (Commodity) appears in state and local procurement records almost exclusively as a minor line item within broader food service solicitations that name canned vegetables, canned produce, or food consumables generically rather than as a standalone procurement category. Recent opportunities do not show dedicated bids for this specific commodity, and when canned vegetables appear in the record, they are typically bundled with dozens or hundreds of other grocery items under general food supply contracts for correctional facilities, state hospitals, school nutrition programs, and residential care centers.

State and local buyers of food products include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Douglas County School System, Muscogee County School District, Ben Hill County Schools), state corrections and health departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Veterans Home), and individual facility nutrition programs across Georgia, Missouri, Texas, Oregon, and Illinois. The code shows no recent activity concentrated in any single issuing body or geographic region—opportunities are dispersed across multiple states and jurisdiction types. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at El Paso State Supported Living Center (response due July 13, 2026), which encompasses canned goods as part of approximately 60 NIGP line items; the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomato products (approximately 7,616 cases, response due June 19, 2026); and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB 304T26300CF for cafeteria food products (approximately 382 line items including canned vegetables and fruits, response extended to May 4, 2026). Canned onions, when specified at all, appear as a minor component in food baskets sized for annual contracts ranging from $1.5 million to $9 million. No opportunities in the record are dedicated to winter-over bunching onions as a primary procurement focus, and no recent solicitation names the specific product type or variant that this Commodity code describes.
