UNSPSC 50465906: Canned or jarred grise de bagnolet shallots

The variety of shallots known as grise de bagnolet shallots that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50465906 Canned or jarred grise de bagnolet shallots is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its specific scope. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for this specialty ingredient; instead, the tagged opportunities span broad food procurement for institutional nutrition programs—school districts, state correctional facilities, state-supported living centers, and state veterans homes—purchasing canned vegetables and other food staples in bulk. The code's nominal specification for a particular variety of preserved shallots does not match the work actually being solicited under it in state and local markets today.

State and local governments buying under this code are primarily school districts and state agencies (corrections, health and human services, veterans services). The geographic spread reflects activity across Georgia, Missouri, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois, with school nutrition programs driving the majority of recent volume. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumables procurement (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026) covering 210 line items for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide; Oregon Department of Corrections' canned tomatoes solicitation (S2910000016089, due February 9, 2026) for 7,616 cases at a historical price of $14.30 per case; and multiple school district food bids across Georgia and Missouri seeking hundreds of food line items delivered weekly on firm fixed pricing. Evaluation typically prioritizes lowest responsive bid from responsible vendors, with pricing remaining firm for contract terms and adjustments permitted only at renewal or upon documented manufacturer price changes exceeding specified thresholds (typically 5 percent). No set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises appear in the recent blocks. The code shows activity but no recent solicitations targeting canned grise de bagnolet shallots specifically; business development interest should focus on broader institutional food supply contracts where this ingredient may be one line item among hundreds.
