UNSPSC 50464113: Canned or jarred marjoram

The variety of herbs known as marjoram that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50464113 Canned or jarred marjoram, a Commodity code, covers shelf-stable condiments and seasoning products that state and local governments procure as part of broader food service supply chains. State and local governments buy these items primarily through institutional food procurement — feeding populations in state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, senior services programs, and other congregate-care settings where bulk purchasing of standardized, shelf-stable food items drives volumes. The issuing bodies are predominantly state health and human services agencies (particularly Texas HHSC for multiple state-supported living centers), county social services departments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), state correctional authorities (Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and state procurement offices acting on behalf of multiple agencies. Recent solicitations reflect institutional food service as the dominant use case, with canned and jarred items embedded within larger line-item food procurement RFQs, IFBs, and informal written quote requests.

Activity under this code concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with the Texas Health and Human Services Commission appearing as a repeat buyer across multiple state-supported living centers (Mexia and El Paso facilities) and statewide food and consumable contracts. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote (IWQ 140229) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins, sauces, and vegetables due October 19, 2026; Texas HHSC's IFB HHS0017799 for Mexia State Supported Living Center food service groceries due August 25, 2026; and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products supplying TDCJ distribution points across five Texas geographic areas due May 4, 2026 (extended via addendum). Contracts typically span one-year terms with renewal and extension options, require firm fixed pricing with adjustments limited to CPA formula or federal wage increases, and impose strict delivery windows (often 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. with specific exclusions), specification compliance, and 90-day warranty or complaint-resolution periods.
