UNSPSC 50462603: Canned or jarred autumn giant 3 cauliflowers

The variety of cauliflower known as autumn giant 3 cauliflowers that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50462603 Canned or jarred autumn giant 3 cauliflowers is a Commodity code that sits within a broader set of food-supply procurements state and local governments use to provision institutional food service operations, including state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county senior services. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing canned vegetables and shelf-stable food products as components of large consumable-food procurements—not cauliflower specifically, but canned tomatoes, mixed canned vegetables, and related jarred or canned items bundled with fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and dry goods in single comprehensive contracts. The code itself appears rarely isolated in recent activity; instead, it functions as one line item within multi-category food-service bids that also cover proteins, dairy, frozen items, and supplies. State Health and Human Services agencies in Texas, Georgia county systems, Oregon corrections, Illinois state facilities, and school districts across the region all source institutional food through IFB and informal written quote (IWQ) notices.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued multiple IFBs for state supported-living-center food and consumables (HHS0018082 due October 23, 2026; HHS0017872 due August 25, 2026; HHS0017449 due July 13, 2026; HHS0016792v2 due March 19, 2026, with a potential value of $4.5 million across the three-year contract period including renewals), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Statewide Procurement Division posted a 382-line-item cafeteria food-products IFB (304T26300CF, due May 4, 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners solicited shelf-stable foods via informal written quote (PE77023NONST2027000000782, due October 19, 2026), Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia and Burke County Public Schools in Georgia each issued comprehensive school-nutrition food bids (due June 15, 2026 and June 5, 2026 respectively), and the Oregon Department of Corrections requested canned-tomato bids (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026, with prior purchase at $13.75 per case). Institutional food procurement under this code moves most actively through state health agencies, school districts, and correctional systems in the South and Pacific Northwest, typically with 30-to-90-day response windows and delivery required within 7 to 30 days of order receipt on FOB Destination terms.
