UNSPSC 50465404: Canned or jarred white acre peas

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

UNSPSC 50465404 Canned or jarred white acre peas is a Commodity code representing a narrow product line within state and local food procurement — specifically preserved legume products used in institutional food service and school nutrition programs. The recent opportunities in this code show a pattern dominated by school districts and state agencies procuring canned or jarred vegetable products (including beans, peas, tomatoes, and mixed produce) as components of broader food supply contracts rather than as standalone line items. State and local governments buy canned peas alongside other canned vegetables, fresh produce, proteins, and dairy items in consolidated RFPs and IFBs that serve cafeterias, correctional facilities, state hospitals, and supported living centers. Issuing bodies span school nutrition programs (Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Burke County and Liberty County schools in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County schools in Georgia), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), and county boards of education (Muscogee County, Douglas County). The code shows activity across multiple regions; however, the recent opportunities block contains no standalone canned white acre pea solicitations — the closest matches are broader canned vegetable procurements (canned tomatoes from Oregon DOC and Texas HHS) that share the same commodity family and procurement structure but specify different vegetables.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and Pacific Northwest, with Georgia school districts showing the most recent sustained activity (Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, and Douglas County schools all issued RFPs or IFBs between January and April 2026), followed by Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Texas (HHS Commission), Oregon (Department of Corrections), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools). A representative recent opportunity is the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center, due July 13, 2026, which encompasses food items under NIGP categories that would include canned vegetables with a prior contract value of $1.5 million. The code itself shows limited standalone recent activity; canned white acre peas appear to be procured as individual line items within larger food supply RFPs and IFBs rather than as dedicated solicitations, suggesting the commodity is a steady but undifferentiated component of institutional meal planning rather than a category drawing focused procurement attention in the current quarter.
