UNSPSC 50462711: Canned or jarred ivory tower celery

The variety of celery known as ivory tower celery that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50462711 Canned or jarred ivory tower celery (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal product scope—preserved celery in shelf-stable form—does not match the nine opportunities posted between May and October 2026 tagged under or related to this code. Those opportunities instead cover broad institutional food procurement: consumable food for state-supported living centers, school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, senior services, and state hospitals, with product scope spanning proteins, dairy, frozen and canned vegetables (including generic canned tomatoes and potatoes), grains, condiments, and food service supplies rather than celery-specific items. One opportunity did name canned tomatoes explicitly—the Oregon Department of Corrections solicitation S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (bid due June 19, 2026)—but no opportunity named canned or jarred celery as a line item or focus. The code shows little relevant recent activity tied to its stated commodity.

Issuing bodies across these opportunities span state health and human services departments (Texas HHS Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state corrections agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections), state education offices (Illinois, Georgia), county systems (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia; Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools in Georgia), and special-purpose school nutrition programs. Texas appears most active, with five separate solicitations from the HHS Commission and Comptroller for state-supported living centers and correctional facilities in a five-month window. Geographic spread includes Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Illinois. Representative opportunities include the Texas HHS Commission IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumable foods, due October 23, 2026), the Gwinnett County IWQ 140229 (approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services, due October 19, 2026), and the Ben Hill County Schools IFB #26271 (comprehensive school food bid spanning hundreds of line items across four school locations, due June 15, 2026). None of these opportunities centers on celery or relates specifically to UNSPSC 50462711.
