UNSPSC 50462601: Canned or jarred all the year round cauliflowers

The variety of cauliflower known as all the year round cauliflowers that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50462601 Canned or jarred all the year round cauliflowers is a Commodity code representing a single product line — preserved cauliflower in cans or jars — that state and local governments buy as part of broader food service and nutrition procurement. Recent opportunities show the code tagged to solicitations that span multiple food categories, from school cafeteria meal service to state institutional kitchens and senior nutrition programs, rather than cauliflower-specific purchasing. The actual work being solicited under this code encompasses food service supply contracts where canned vegetables appear as line items within larger consumable-goods buys. Issuing bodies soliciting under the code include state health and human services departments (particularly Texas HHS Commission), county governments (Gwinnett County), state correctional agencies, school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), and state supported living centers. These bodies treat preserved vegetables as part of consolidated food inventory management rather than standalone procurements.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with representative opportunities including the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumables, due October 23, 2026) covering prepared foods and supplies across 22 line items; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 (approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services, due October 19, 2026); and the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for canned tomatoes (7,616 cases, due June 19, 2026) — the last showing state procurement of specific canned vegetables at scale. School nutrition solicitations from Burke County and Ben Hill County, Georgia, encompass canned and frozen vegetables within hundreds of line items. The code shows no standalone cauliflower procurements in the recent-opportunities block; canned cauliflower, where it appears, is embedded in general food service line items priced and delivered under consolidated contracts where delivery and compliance requirements focus on the total order rather than the individual vegetable type.
