UNSPSC 50463266: Canned or jarred telstar corn

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

UNSPSC 50463266 Canned or jarred telstar corn is a Commodity code encompassing canned vegetable products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service operations—primarily state agencies operating residential facilities, school districts operating cafeteria programs, and county social-service departments supplying congregate meals. The work being solicited involves supplying shelf-stable canned vegetables, often as part of broader food-service contracts bundling proteins, dairy, condiments, and consumable supplies. Issuing bodies include state health and human services commissions operating state supported living centers and psychiatric hospitals, independent school districts purchasing for multiple school cafeterias, county departments of community services distributing food to seniors, corrections departments supplying inmate dining facilities, and state agencies managing employee or facility dining. Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears as a repeat buyer, with multiple recent IFBs covering food and consumables for state-supported living centers.

Recent opportunities cluster in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017872 in August 2026 (due August 25, 2026) for consumables and noncontract food items for Lufkin State Supported Living Center, encompassing canned and prepared foods alongside food-service supplies for fiscal year 2027 operations, with delivery within seven days of order receipt and firm pricing on an F.O.B. Destination basis.

Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026) including canned vegetables for delivery to Gwinnett Senior Services Center by December 7, 2026. Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia issued a comprehensive school nutrition bid (due June 15, 2026) spanning canned fruits and vegetables with Buy American Act compliance required. The code shows active procurement across multiple issuing-body types with consistent emphasis on USDA standards, shelf-life certification, delivery timeliness, and firm fixed pricing.
