UNSPSC 50464819: Canned or jarred white mushrooms

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

UNSPSC 50464819 Canned or jarred white mushrooms, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product line within state and local food procurement, though the recent opportunities block shows little direct activity for mushrooms specifically. State and local governments procure canned and jarred vegetables, including mushrooms, as components of larger food service contracts for institutional kitchens—schools, correctional facilities, health and human services agencies, and veterans homes. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (elementary through high schools), state departments of corrections, state health and human services commissions, and special-purpose institutional providers. Recent opportunities in the broader canned-vegetable category show activity from the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home, and multiple Georgia school districts soliciting canned tomatoes, canned goods, and supplemental food products as line items within master food procurement contracts rather than as standalone mushroom-specific purchases.

School nutrition programs and state institutional facilities dominate the buy. Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia) issued a Master Grocery K-12 IFB in April 2026 covering multiple food categories; Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia) issued a food bid in May 2026 for quarterly supply across four schools; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 in June 2026 for food and consumable products at state supported living centers, with historical spend of $1.5 million for the prior year. The Oregon Department of Corrections posted two separate ITBs for canned goods in early 2026 (tomato paste in February, canned tomatoes in January and again in June). These contracts typically require firm fixed pricing inclusive of delivery, USDA compliance, minimum shelf life (twelve months is common), sodium limits, and compliance with Buy American requirements in school contexts. Geographic spread covers Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, Virginia, Missouri, and other states with active K-12 and state institutional procurement, though no recent opportunities identify canned white mushrooms as a discrete line item or sole-source requirement. The code sees activity as part of consolidated food service RFPs and IFBs rather than standalone mushroom procurements, making it difficult to assess specific demand for this commodity in isolation from broader vegetable categories.
