UNSPSC 50464400: Canned or jarred leeks

The type of vegetable known as leeks that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50464400 Canned or jarred leeks, a Class code, does not reflect significant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent-opportunities block contains no solicitations specifically for canned or jarred leeks; instead, the opportunities tagged under this code involve broad food service procurement across multiple categories—canned tomatoes, tomato paste, fresh produce, eggs, and comprehensive grocery and food supply contracts for schools, correctional facilities, health and human services institutions, and veterans' homes. State and local governments buying under this code nominally purchase shelf-stable vegetable products for institutional food service, but the recent solicitations show demand is driven by bulk food service contracts that bundle dozens or hundreds of line items rather than single-product purchases.

The issuing bodies soliciting food products include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Ben Hill County, Burke County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, and Savannah-Chatham County Schools in Georgia; Rockwood School District in Missouri; Douglas County Schools in Georgia), state corrections and health agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and state veterans' services (Illinois Veterans Home in Quincy). Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, Illinois, and Virginia. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables to supply the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, with estimated prior-period value of $1.5 million), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned tomatoes (approximately 7,616 cases, bid due June 19, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB 2000004323 for supply to 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026). The code shows minimal standalone purchasing for canned leeks and should be monitored only if your firm supplies institutional bulk food service contracts with competitive positioning on produce or vegetable line items within larger food service RFPs and IFBs.
