UNSPSC 50464812: Canned or jarred pleurotus mushrooms

The variety of mushrooms known as pleurotus mushrooms that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50464812 Canned or jarred pleurotus mushrooms (Commodity) does not see meaningful recent activity in state and local procurement. Among eleven recent opportunities posted between May and October 2026 across multiple state and local issuing bodies, no solicitation specifically named or requested pleurotus mushrooms. The recent opportunities in this taxonomy block target broader food service categories — canned tomatoes, fresh potatoes, shelf-stable proteins and vegetables, cafeteria entrees, and consumable food service supplies — solicited by Texas Health and Human Services Commission facilities, Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia and Georgia county school systems, and Ben Hill County Schools, but none isolated this mushroom commodity as a line item or requirement.

The eleven posted opportunities span Texas, Oregon, and Georgia, with Texas Health and Human Services Commission appearing as a repeat buyer issuing multiple IFBs for state supported living center operations (Lufkin and El Paso facilities) and statewide supplemental food procurement. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas HHS IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumables, due October 23, 2026) encompassing 22 line items of prepared foods and food service supplies; the Gwinnett County IWQ 140229 (approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable foods including canned proteins and vegetables, due October 19, 2026); and the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026). The absence of pleurotus mushroom specifications across this activity suggests either minimal state and local demand for this commodity or that it is rarely solicited as a standalone line item. Vendors seeking to pursue this code should monitor ongoing food service procurements from state institutions and school nutrition programs for inclusion of specialty mushroom products.
