UNSPSC 50463612: Canned or jarred sugarhat endives

The variety of endives known as sugarhat endives that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50463612 Canned or jarred sugarhat endives is a Commodity code that in practice sees little direct solicitation under this specific product line; state and local governments do procure canned vegetables and shelf-stable food products in bulk for institutional food service, but the recent opportunities block shows demand concentrated on broad food-supply categories rather than sugarhat endives specifically. The code reflects a granular taxonomy point within food procurement—one product among hundreds of line items in comprehensive institutional foodservice bids. State and local issuers soliciting under food-supply codes include state health and human services departments operating state-supported living centers and psychiatric hospitals, county and municipal school districts procuring for nutrition programs across multiple campuses, county social-services agencies, and state corrections departments supplying inmate foodservice. Texas Health and Human Services Commission and school districts in Georgia emerge as repeat buyers in the recent opportunities, each conducting multiple solicitations for comprehensive food and consumables packages that bundle dozens or hundreds of line items.

Recent activity spans Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Illinois. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted IFBs for food and consumable products for state-supported living centers in Lufkin and El Paso (solicitations HHS0018082 due October 23, 2026; HHS0017449 due July 13, 2026; and HHS0016792V2 with response deadline March 19, 2026), with historical contract value for one prior period at $1.5 million. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued an IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes due June 19, 2026, with prior purchase pricing at $13.75 per case from California Healthy Harvest. Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia (Fitzgerald) and Burke County Public Schools in Waynesboro, Georgia each posted school nutrition food bids with response dates in May and June 2026. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia) requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of food items including shelf-stable products for senior services with quote due October 19, 2026. The Illinois State (solicitation 27497DVAQUINCB52821) posted a quarterly food order bid due June 26, 2026. Sugarhat endives do not appear explicitly in any recent posting summary; vendors pursuing this code should expect opportunities as line items within much larger institutional food-supply solicitations, particularly through state health departments, corrections agencies, and school nutrition programs in the South and Southwest.
