UNSPSC 50464005: Canned or jarred sugar snap peas

The variety of green peas known as sugar snap peas that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50464005 Canned or jarred sugar snap peas is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure canned and jarred vegetables as component inputs for institutional food service—specifically, school nutrition programs, state facility kitchens serving corrections and human services residents, and weekly food orders at state veterans homes. The recent solicitations reflect a market dominated by school districts and state agencies buying prepared vegetables as line items within broader food supply and distribution contracts rather than as standalone SKUs; canned tomatoes, produce, and grocery items appear far more frequently in state and local notices than sugar snap peas specifically, suggesting the code captures a narrow product category within a much larger institutional food procurement ecosystem. Issuing bodies span K-12 school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Ben Hill County Schools, Douglas County School System), state departments of corrections (Oregon Department of Corrections), state human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), state veterans homes (Illinois Veterans Home), and county school nutrition programs across Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois. School districts and state food service operations represent the core buyer cohort, with contracts typically running July 1 through June 30 or September 1 through August 31 to align with fiscal and academic calendars.

Recent opportunities show geographic concentration in the South and Midwest, with notable activity in Georgia (five school district solicitations), Texas (two HHSC and one TDCJ prison food procurement), Oregon (two ODOC corrections bids), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools). Representative recent procurements include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026) with an estimated prior-period value of $1.5 million, Burke County Public Schools' sealed bid for school nutrition groceries (due June 5, 2026) spanning nearly 400 line items across multiple food categories with contract start July 1, 2026, and the Douglas County School System's RFP 26-003 for food supply and distribution services to 32 schools with estimated annual expenditure of $9,000,000 (due February 18, 2026). Canned vegetables appear as minor line items within these comprehensive food procurements rather than as featured commodities; a search across the opportunities shows explicit references to canned tomatoes, canned fruits, and canned goods generically, but no isolated tenders for sugar snap peas. The code sees active pursuit but primarily as part of broader grocery and food service distribution contracts governed by firm fixed pricing, Buy American Act compliance, USDA nutritional standards, HACCP requirements, and payment terms of Net 30 to Net 40 days from delivery.
