UNSPSC 50462608: Canned or jarred orange bouquet cauliflowers

The variety of cauliflower known as orange bouquet cauliflowers that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50462608 Canned or jarred orange bouquet cauliflowers is a Commodity code covering shelf-stable vegetable products that state and local governments procure as part of broader institutional food service supply chains. Recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code, however, show little to no activity specifically for canned cauliflower; instead, recent solicitations under related food commodity codes reveal that state agencies, county departments, school districts, and correctional facilities are buying comprehensive food service catalogs that include canned vegetables, proteins, grains, dairy, and consumable supplies alongside prepared foods and kitchen items. The issuing bodies span state health and human services departments (Texas HHSC, Georgia, Illinois), county boards (Gwinnett County, Georgia; Ben Hill County Schools; Burke County Public Schools), state correctional agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and school nutrition programs statewide. These jurisdictions consolidate food purchasing through annual or quarterly IFBs and IWQs that cover dozens to hundreds of line items, with delivery windows of 72 hours to 30 days and F.O.B. Destination terms standard across all contracts.

The geographic spread includes Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Illinois as primary recent activity centers. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, estimated prior-period value $1.5 million), the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026, with prior purchase at $13.75 per case), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (due October 19, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for comprehensive food products across multiple categories (due June 15, 2026). No recent solicitations explicitly name canned orange bouquet cauliflowers as a standalone line item or focus; the code appears to represent a narrow product type within much larger institutional food service procurement vehicles.
