UNSPSC 50465401: Canned or jarred purple hull peas

The variety of peas known as purple hull peas that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50465401 Canned or jarred purple hull peas, a Commodity code, represents a niche item within state and local food procurement that does not appear in the recent opportunities sourced. State and local governments buy canned and jarred legumes like purple hull peas primarily through school nutrition programs, institutional food service for corrections and health and human services facilities, and consolidated grocery or food supply contracts. The issuing bodies across the recent opportunities span school districts (elementary through high school), state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies, and county boards of education, with solicitations concentrated in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Missouri, Virginia, and Illinois. The work is typically embedded in broader food procurement RFPs, RFQs, and ITBs that bundle dozens or hundreds of line items across produce, proteins, dairy, and shelf-stable goods rather than solicited as standalone commodity purchases.

The source contains no recent opportunities specifically for canned or jarred purple hull peas. The recent state and local contract opportunities in the block include canned tomatoes (Oregon Department of Corrections, February and June 2026), tomato paste (Oregon Department of Corrections, February 2026), fresh produce (multiple school districts and county systems, February through June 2026), and comprehensive grocery and food supply procurements for school nutrition programs and institutional facilities. Purple hull peas, when purchased, would likely be sourced as a line item within those broader food supply and grocery contracts—for example, within the Texas Health and Human Services Commission supplemental food procurement, the school district grocery bids in Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia, or the Oregon Department of Corrections food supply framework—rather than as a dedicated solicitation. The code shows no standalone recent activity and no identifiable repeat buyers or geographic concentration for this specific commodity in the current opportunity set.
