UNSPSC 50463249: Canned or jarred pristine corn

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

UNSPSC 50463249 Canned or jarred pristine corn, a Commodity code, covers shelf-stable canned and jarred corn products that state and local governments procure for food service operations at institutional facilities—primarily state hospitals, state supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and senior services centers. Recent opportunities under the code reflect a narrow but steady demand for bulk canned corn as a component of larger consumables and food-service contracts, typically priced per case with delivery to central distribution points or multiple facility locations. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state health and human services agencies, state corrections departments, county boards of commissioners managing senior services, school districts, and county school boards. Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears as a repeat buyer, issuing multiple IFBs for consumable foods serving state supported living centers. The work itself does not narrow to canned corn alone—opportunities group canned corn with dozens of other food items (proteins, vegetables, dairy, condiments, supplies) into consolidated food-service contracts, and vendors typically respond to a minimum threshold of line items (such as 95 percent in statewide solicitations) rather than selecting individual products.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted IFBs HHS0018082 (due October 23, 2026, for Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumables) and HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026, for El Paso State Supported Living Center food and consumables, with a prior-period value of $1.5 million), alongside a supplemental statewide procurement HHS0016792V2 (bid due March 19, 2026, 210 line items, maximum potential value $4.5 million over three years). Georgia sources include Ben Hill County Schools (due June 15, 2026, multi-category food procurement for four schools) and Burke County Public Schools (due June 5, 2026, nearly 400 line items across five schools). The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited canned tomatoes (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026, 7,616 cases, prior award $13.75 per case from California Healthy Harvest). Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia posted an IWQ for shelf-stable food items (PE77023NONST2027000000782, due October 19, 2026, approximately 1,062 cases). All solicitations require F.O.B. Destination pricing with freight prepaid, delivery within 72 hours to 30 days depending on the buyer, and submission of multiple references, compliance certifications, and insurance documentation.
