UNSPSC 50463208: Canned or jarred bodacious corn

The variety of corn known as bodacious corn that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50463208 Canned or jarred bodacious corn, a Commodity code, captures a narrow product line that state and local governments procure primarily as part of broader food service supply contracts rather than as standalone sourcing opportunities. Recent state and local activity shows this code embedded within school district nutrition programs, state institutional food service (corrections facilities, veterans homes, and state supported living centers), and health and human services food supply contracts where canned vegetables appear alongside dozens of other staple items. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix—Rockwood R-VI, Fairfax County Public Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Douglas County School System, and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System have all posted multi-hundred-line-item food procurements in the past four months—alongside state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state health agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), and veterans homes. The work being solicited is straightforward: supply of shelf-stable canned vegetables (often with sodium and quality specifications), delivered weekly or per order to school cafeteria locations, central distribution centers, or institutional kitchens, typically as part of fixed-price annual contracts with optional renewals.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and Southwest. Texas, Georgia, and Oregon show the most recent procurement volume, with Texas Health and Human Services alone posting multiple statewide food-service RFPs and IFBs in recent months covering state hospitals and supported living centers. Representative recent solicitations include Texas HHSC's HHS0017449 (IFB for food and consumable products for El Paso State Supported Living Center, due July 13, 2026, including canned goods alongside fresh and frozen items), Burke County Public Schools' PE55645NONST2027000000007 (School Nutrition Food Bid, sealed bids due May 26, 2026, encompassing 400 line items including canned fruits and vegetables across five schools), and the State of Illinois' 27497DVAQUINCB52821 (FY-27 IVHQ quarterly weekly food order, due June 26, 2026). These contracts typically run July through June and carry optional renewal terms extending one to four years. Pricing is firm fixed through the initial term with adjustments permitted at renewal using USDA or Consumer Price Index benchmarks. No recent opportunities target canned corn specifically; the code appears only as one line item among hundreds in comprehensive food supply contracts, meaning pursuit requires capability across a full product range and willingness to compete on cost and delivery reliability alongside established food-service distributors.
