UNSPSC 50463009: Canned or jarred nerva bok choy

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

UNSPSC 50463009 Canned or jarred nerva bok choy is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local activity, actually encompasses canned and jarred vegetable products more broadly—the recent solicitations show state and local governments buying canned tomatoes, tomato paste, and various fresh produce and food staples through school nutrition programs, institutional food service, and correctional facilities. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia), Burke County Public Schools (Georgia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) posting multiple food procurement opportunities; state agencies including the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Aging (Veterans Homes), and the State of Georgia also solicit regularly for food and consumable products to supply correctional facilities, state hospitals, state supported living centers, and veterans homes. The work being solicited spans multi-category food supply contracts covering fresh produce, frozen items, dairy, proteins, canned goods, and consumable supplies, often with line-item counts in the hundreds and annual estimated values ranging from several hundred thousand dollars to $9 million for comprehensive food-service distribution agreements.

Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia, with seven school districts posting solicitations between February and June 2026; Texas ranks second with the Health and Human Services Commission and Department of Criminal Justice posting multiple notices; Oregon Department of Corrections and Illinois Veterans Home system round out the visible activity. Representative recent opportunities include Ben Hill County Schools posting an IFB for school nutrition food products with a June 15, 2026 bid-due date covering fresh and frozen produce, meat, dairy, and supplies across four school locations; Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center with proposals due July 13, 2026; and Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia) soliciting an IFB for Master Grocery K-12 with a response date of April 27, 2026 for delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens. Oregon Department of Corrections bid S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes (approximately 7,616 cases) with a June 19, 2026 closing date, applying Oregon-fabricated and resident-bidder preferences of 5 percent each. These opportunities typically include Buy American or domestic-preference provisions, USDA compliance requirements, firm fixed pricing with limited midterm adjustment provisions, delivery to multiple locations, and contract terms of one year with optional renewals of two to four additional years.
