UNSPSC 50466846: Canned or jarred moqua

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

UNSPSC 50466846 Canned or jarred moqua, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual work being procured under this classification in recent state and local solicitations. The recent opportunities block shows no procurement activity for canned or jarred moqua specifically; instead, issuing bodies are soliciting canned tomato products, supplemental food and consumables for state facilities, fresh produce, and comprehensive grocery supply to schools and correctional institutions. State and local governments use this code classification nominally, but the actual buying under the code spans broad food service supply categories—canned proteins, vegetables, fruits, and prepared foods for school nutrition programs, state hospitals, state supported living centers, and correctional facilities. The issuing-body mix is dominated by school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), with significant activity from state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Veterans Home), and state purchasing divisions on behalf of multiple facilities.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and Texas, with Georgia school districts dominating the recent opportunities (Ben Hill County, Burke County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, and Douglas County), followed by activity in Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Virginia (Fairfax County), Texas (HHSC for state hospitals and living centers, TDCJ for correctional facilities), Oregon (Department of Corrections), and Illinois (Veterans Home). Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes due June 19, 2026, with USDA Grade B or better and sodium content not exceeding 240 mg per 100 grams; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center, with proposals due July 13, 2026, covering NIGP classes for food service and canteen operations across multiple state facilities; and the State of Illinois' RFQ 27497DVAQUINCB52821 for quarterly weekly food orders at the Illinois Veterans Home Quincy, with bids due June 26, 2026. School district procurements typically follow annual cycles aligned with the July-through-June school year and cover hundreds of line items spanning proteins, dairy, produce, grains, and prepared foods with firm pricing for the contract period and optional renewal terms.
