UNSPSC 50466100: Canned or jarred spinaches

The type of vegetable known as spinaches that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50466100 Canned or jarred spinaches is a Class code that encompasses shelf-stable canned and jarred vegetable products, though recent state and local solicitations show the code in practice captures broad institutional food service procurement spanning prepared foods, fresh and frozen produce, proteins, dairy, and consumable kitchen supplies alongside canned vegetables. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state health and human services agencies operating state supported living centers and correctional facilities, county governments procuring for senior services and community programs, independent school districts managing nutrition programs across multiple campuses, and a state corrections department. Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears as a repeat buyer with multiple fiscal year solicitations for state supported living center operations. The geographic spread of recent activity spans Texas (state hospitals, supported living centers, and correctional facilities), Georgia (Gwinnett County senior services, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Schools), Oregon (Department of Corrections), and Illinois (state health care facilities), with Texas representing the densest recent activity.

Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods (prepared foods and food service supplies) at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center with bids due October 23, 2026, the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, canned vegetables) due October 19, 2026, the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (USDA Grade B or better, sliced through whole format) due June 19, 2026 with a previous purchase at $13.75 per case, and Ben Hill County Schools IFB for a comprehensive multi-category food bid covering fresh produce, proteins, dairy, seasonings, and kitchen supplies across four school locations due June 15, 2026. Texas Health and Human Services also posted IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a historical prior-period value of $1.5 million and anticipated award in July 2026, and IFB HHS0016792V2 for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (210 line items, maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years, bids due March 19, 2026). School districts and correctional systems typically require firm, fixed unit pricing with quarterly or semi-annual adjustment mechanisms tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index documentation, Buy American compliance, HACCP certification, liability insurance minimums of $500,000 to $1 million, and delivery within 24 to 72 hours of order placement.
