UNSPSC 50463228: Canned or jarred hudson corn

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

UNSPSC 50463228 Canned or jarred hudson corn, a Commodity code, covers shelf-stable canned and jarred vegetables procured by state and local governments for institutional food service operations — most commonly by state health and human services agencies operating state-supported living centers and other congregate-care facilities, though school districts and correctional departments also solicit under or adjacent to this code. Recent activity shows state and local buyers sourcing canned vegetables as line items within broader consumables and food-service RFPs and IFBs, where canned corn, tomatoes, and similar shelf-stable produce sit alongside frozen proteins, dairy, and paper supplies for cafeterias, canteens, and food-service operations. The work is narrow and commodity-focused; vendors typically respond to large multi-line food RFPs where canned vegetables represent a small subset of the total scope rather than standalone solicitations for corn alone.

The issuing-body mix is dominated by state health agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission has issued multiple consumables and food RFPs for state-supported living centers in Lufkin and El Paso, with a statewide supplemental-food IFB covering up to $4.5 million over three years), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, and separate Illinois state-school food procurement), and corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice). Activity clusters in Texas and Georgia, with ancillary presence in Oregon and Illinois. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (consumables for Lufkin State Supported Living Center, 22 line items including prepared foods and food-service supplies, due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 (approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables, due October 19, 2026), Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026, with prior purchase at $13.75 per case), and Ben Hill County Schools' food bid encompassing hundreds of line items across multiple categories with monthly or fixed pricing (due June 15, 2026). Canned-vegetable volumes in recent bids range from a few hundred to several thousand cases annually, with delivery typically within 7 to 30 days of order receipt on FOB Destination terms.
