UNSPSC 50466501: Canned or jarred green globe turnips

The variety of turnips known as green globe turnips that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50466501 Canned or jarred green globe turnips is a Commodity code that sits at the lowest tier of the taxonomy, but state and local governments procure far broader canned and jarred vegetable categories under this code designation—recent solicitations show the code applied to comprehensive weekly and quarterly food orders encompassing dozens of product lines, not turnips specifically. The issuing bodies span state departments (Illinois Veterans Home, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections), school nutrition programs (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), and state-supported living centers. School districts dominate activity and represent the most consistent and visible buyers under this code, though state correctional facilities, state health agencies, and veterans' homes also issue regular procurements. Geographic spread includes Illinois, Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia, with school-based activity concentrated in Georgia and Missouri based on recent filings.

Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission requesting supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide under IFB HHS0017449, with proposals due July 13, 2026, covering 210 line items with a historical value of $1.5 million and estimated contract value up to $4.5 million over three years; Fairfax County Public Schools issuing IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 across 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens, with sealed bids due April 27, 2026; and Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri soliciting grocery items and Net Off Invoice products for the 2026–27 school year under two concurrent competitive bids (due April 29, 2026) serving approximately 6,900 lunch and 900 breakfast participants. Most state and local food procurements under this code are IFBs or RFQs with firm-fixed pricing, include Buy American and HACCP compliance requirements, impose delivery schedules of one to three times weekly to multiple school or facility locations, and favor multi-year contracts with automatic renewal options and quarterly or annual price adjustment mechanisms tied to USDA or Consumer Price Index benchmarks.
