UNSPSC 50466422: Canned or jarred tigerella tomatoes

The variety of tomatoes known as tigerella tomatoes that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50466422 Canned or jarred tigerella tomatoes is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure shelf-stable canned tomato products—including diced, sliced, stewed, whole, and halved varieties—primarily for institutional food service operations at state facilities, schools, and correctional institutions. The work involves supplying bulk quantities of FDA/USDA-compliant canned tomatoes meeting specific sodium, shelf-life, and grade requirements, typically as part of larger consumables and food-service solicitations rather than as standalone line items. Issuing bodies include state health and human services agencies, state departments of corrections, county boards of commissioners, and independent school districts, with state facilities (supported living centers, prisons, hospitals) and school nutrition programs representing the primary customer base.
