UNSPSC 50463414: Canned or jarred korila cucumbers

The variety of cucumbers known as korila cucumbers that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50463414 Canned or jarred korila cucumbers is a Commodity code that covers preserved cucumber products state and local procurement offices acquire for institutional food service, primarily school nutrition programs and state facility cafeterias. Recent solicitations under this and closely related canned vegetable codes show state and local governments sourcing canned and preserved vegetables—including canned tomatoes, tomato paste, and fresh produce alongside preserved items—for dining operations at correctional facilities, health and human services centers, school districts, and veterans homes. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI and Burke County Public Schools in Missouri and Georgia, Fairfax County and Liberty County in Virginia and Georgia, and Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia) and state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home, Georgia state operations). A smaller number of county school systems and special-purpose nutrition programs also solicit under related codes. The scope of work spans weekly and quarterly food orders, annual grocery and produce contracts, and supplemental food procurement for institutional meal service, with vendors typically supplying branded or equivalent products, complying with USDA grades and nutritional standards, delivering on fixed schedules, and maintaining firm pricing for contract periods.

Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Texas, with significant activity in Oregon, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables serving the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center and related facilities, with bids due July 13, 2026, covering NIGP categories 385, 390, 380, and 393 under firm fixed unit-rate pricing with an estimated prior-period value of $1.5 million; the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000016405 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes due June 19, 2026, with Oregon-fabricated and resident-bidder preferences of 5 percent each; and the Ben Hill County Schools IFB for school nutrition food products due June 15, 2026, encompassing hundreds of line items across fresh, frozen, and canned categories with Buy American requirements and multi-school delivery. School districts dominate the volume, with contracts typically running July-to-June cycles, requiring multiple-site delivery, and evaluating vendors on lowest-responsive-bid or best-value criteria using USDA pricing benchmarks or market indices. No set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises appear consistent across the opportunities reviewed; Buy American provisions and HACCP compliance are standard.
