UNSPSC 50463259: Canned or jarred snowbelle corn

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

UNSPSC 50463259 Canned or jarred snowbelle corn, a Commodity code, covers specialty frozen or preserved vegetable products that state and local school nutrition programs, corrections departments, and health services agencies procure as components of broader food service contracts. The code sits within a much larger ecosystem of canned and preserved produce procurement; recent opportunities show state and local buyers purchasing this item not as a standalone solicitation but embedded in multi-line-item food RFPs and IFBs that encompass hundreds of grocery line items, fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and prepared foods. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections, state health and human services commissions operating institutional facilities, county and municipal school districts, and regional cooperative purchasing consortia. School nutrition programs dominate the issuing-body mix, with recent activity from Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia), Burke County Public Schools (Georgia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Douglas County School System (Georgia), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the Illinois Veterans Home, and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission. The code shows consistent procurement activity across multiple states, with recent activity concentrated in Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Oregon, Illinois, and Virginia.

Recent representative opportunities illustrate typical scope and scale. Ben Hill County Schools issued IFB #26271 (due June 15, 2026) for a comprehensive food procurement spanning fresh and frozen produce, meat and seafood, dairy, seasonings, bread, ice cream, and supplies across four school locations under the Child Nutrition Program, with contract term July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 and options to extend up to three months; the Buy American Act applies to all food products, which must contain over 51 percent domestically grown agricultural components. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center and other Department of State Health Services facilities, with historical annual value of $1.5 million for the prior period and a contract term of September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2027, renewable through August 31, 2028, with pricing submitted as firm fixed unit rates and evaluation on best value rather than lowest price alone. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S2910000017145 (due June 19, 2026) for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes, requiring USDA Grade B or better with sodium not exceeding 240 mg per 100 grams and minimum twelve-month shelf life, with Oregon-fabricated and Oregon-resident preferences of 5 percent each available. Canned or jarred corn products appear as line items within these broader food service contracts, priced per case or per unit with firm pricing required for the contract period, typically July through June fiscal-year cycles, and subject to periodic price redetermination tied to USDA or Consumer Price Index benchmarks where permitted by individual district policy.
