UNSPSC 50463520: Canned or jarred white eggplants

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

UNSPSC 50463520 Canned or jarred white eggplants, a Commodity code, sees minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The source contains fourteen recent opportunities posted between January and June 2026, but only one—the Oregon Department of Corrections' canned tomato procurement (S2910000016405, closed March 9, 2026)—falls within the preserved-vegetable family. Most solicitations under this code span broader food-service categories: school district nutrition programs procuring hundreds of line items across proteins, produce, dairy, and prepared foods; state health and human services facilities seeking supplemental food and consumable products; and correctional departments purchasing bulk food supplies. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Fairfax County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Rockwood School District (Missouri) each posting separate food-supply IFBs or RFPs. State-level agencies—Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Home, and Georgia Department of State Health Services—also source regularly under this family. Canned or jarred vegetables appear as line items within these larger procurements, but white eggplant specifically is not named in any posted opportunity. Geographic spread is concentrated in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas, Missouri) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with single postings from Illinois. Recent activity clusters in school nutrition and state facility food service rather than retail or consumer-packaged-goods procurement.

No state or local opportunities explicitly soliciting canned or jarred white eggplants appear in the source. The code's nominal product line does not align with the actual scope of recent competitive procurements under it, which treat preserved vegetables as subordinate items within comprehensive food-supply contracts. Pursue this code only if your firm supplies as a line-item vendor within larger food-service distributorships or can credibly position preserved eggplants as part of a broader canned-vegetable or ethnic-ingredients offering to school districts or state institutional buyers. Monitor Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas HHSC future postings for potential inclusion of specialty preserved vegetables; both agencies have posted multiple food procurements in the past six months and may solicit eggplant as a menu staple. Standalone commodity opportunities for white eggplant in the state and local space remain inactive as of mid-2026.
