UNSPSC 50463007: Canned or jarred jade pagoda bok choy

The variety of chinese cabbage known as jade pagoda that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50463007 Canned or jarred jade pagoda bok choy is a Commodity code that, in practice, rarely appears as a standalone procurement driver — state and local governments source this specialty canned vegetable as one line item among dozens within broad food-service contracts rather than as a dedicated category. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations specifically for jade pagoda bok choy; the code appears misaligned with actual state and local purchasing patterns. Food-service agencies do procure canned vegetables, but through multi-category institutional food bids that encompass fresh produce, proteins, dairy, dry goods, and consumable supplies simultaneously. When canned vegetables are solicited, they are typically generic categories such as canned tomatoes or mixed canned items, not specialty Asian greens.

Recent activity under related food-service codes shows Texas state health and human services facilities (Lufkin and El Paso State Supported Living Centers), Oregon corrections, Georgia and Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), and Illinois state agencies issuing competitive bids for annual food supplies under IFB and IWQ notices with response windows of one to three weeks. The Oregon Department of Corrections bought 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes at $13.75 per case in February 2026; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's El Paso State Supported Living Center procurement had a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million and covers 210 line items statewide. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. If your firm supplies specialty canned vegetables, this code presents minimal direct pursuit opportunity — the relevant entry point is instead the broader food-service aggregates (UNSPSC family 50000000 and related Class codes for institutional food procurement), where jade pagoda bok choy would compete as an approved equivalent line item.
