UNSPSC 50463505: Canned or jarred easter egg eggplants

The variety of eggplants known as easter egg eggplants that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50463505 Canned or jarred easter egg eggplants is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The nine recent opportunities in the dataset are tagged with this code but soliciting shelf-stable food products—canned tomatoes, canned vegetables, frozen proteins, dairy, condiments, fresh produce, and cafeteria staples—none of which are canned or jarred eggplants or eggplant products. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being bought suggests either a tagging error in the state and local procurement systems or that eggplant products do not currently move through state and local contracts in sufficient volume to generate discrete solicitations under this Commodity classification.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code instead reflect institutional food service procurement across multiple jurisdictions and customer types: the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (state supported living centers and state hospitals), the Oregon Department of Corrections, county school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (senior services), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Activity is concentrated in Texas and Georgia with lesser representation in Oregon and Illinois. Representative solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026, with prior award at $13.75 per case), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0018082 for consumables at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools' sealed food bid covering hundreds of line items across multiple categories (due June 15, 2026). If pursuing vendors in institutional food service, monitor this code's activity as a catchall for shelf-stable institutional procurement, but do not expect regular opportunities specific to eggplant products.
