UNSPSC 50463220: Canned or jarred double gem corn

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

UNSPSC 50463220 Canned or jarred double gem corn is a Commodity code covering shelf-stable canned and jarred corn products that state and local governments procure as part of broader food service and meal-supply operations. Recent state and local solicitations show the code embedded within large consolidated food buys for institutional dining — state-supported living centers, corrections facilities, school nutrition programs, and county senior services. Issuing bodies span health and human services departments (primarily Texas HHSC), departments of corrections, county boards of commissioners, independent school districts, and state procurement offices acting on behalf of institutional customers. The work being solicited is straightforward acquisition of canned corn as one line item among hundreds in comprehensive food-supply contracts; vendors typically respond to specifications requiring USDA Grade B or better, sodium content limits, shelf-life minimums (commonly 12 months remaining at delivery), proper labeling, and FOB Destination delivery within 7 to 30 days of order. Pricing is unit-based (per case or per ounce), remains firm for 30 to 90 days post-award, and must include all transportation and handling costs.
