UNSPSC 50464617: Canned or jarred looseleaf lettuces

The variety of lettuce known as looseleaf lettuces that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50464617 Canned or jarred looseleaf lettuces (Commodity) represents a narrow product line that appears rarely in state and local procurement. The recent solicitations tagged with this code do not reflect canned or jarred looseleaf lettuces but instead reflect broader food-service purchasing activity — the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFBs for consumable foods and supplemental food and consumables for state supported living centers, Gwinnett County requested quotes for shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables, and Ben Hill County Schools issued a food bid spanning fresh produce, meat, dairy, and dozens of other categories. The code shows little decision-relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope.

The issuing bodies in the opportunity block span state health and human services departments, county purchasing offices, school districts, and state departments of corrections across Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas (multiple HHSC procurements), Georgia (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Schools), and Oregon (Department of Corrections). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (bids due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County's IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (quotes due October 19, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (bids due June 19, 2026). The code does not show recurring canned-lettuce demand; pursue activity only if your firm supplies the broader food-service and institutional-nutrition categories these solicitations actually cover.
