UNSPSC 50471811: Canned or jarred organic bolita beans

The variety of organic beans known as organic bolita beans that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50471811 Canned or jarred organic bolita beans is a Commodity code that captures shelf-stable legume products state and local governments procure for institutional food service — primarily state supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and senior services. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show a broader pattern: issuing bodies are buying canned and jarred staple proteins, vegetables, and prepared foods for high-volume foodservice operations rather than exclusively organic bolita beans. The code appears in multi-hundred-line-item food and consumable procurements where canned legumes sit alongside frozen vegetables, canned proteins, pasta, rice, and fresh produce. Issuing bodies include Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) operating state supported living centers, county boards of commissioners managing senior services centers, school districts operating nutrition programs, and state correctional departments. Texas appears as a standout repeat buyer, with HHSC posting multiple IFBs for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers. Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools) and Georgia county governments (Gwinnett County) also field regular institutional food solicitations. Oregon Department of Corrections and Illinois state agencies round out the recent geographic spread.

Representative recent opportunities span late 2026 activity. Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted IFB HHS0018082 on October 16, 2026 (bids due October 23, 2026) for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center, comprising 22 line items including prepared foods and food service supplies with estimated annual quantities of 1 to 24 cases per item and delivery within seven days of order. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued IWQ 140229 on October 13, 2026 (quotes due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products including canned proteins, vegetables, and condiments for the Department of Community Services, with F.O.B. Destination delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center required within 72 hours of order. Earlier in the summer, Ben Hill County Schools issued IFB #26271 (bids due June 15, 2026) for school nutrition food across four school locations covering hundreds of line items with monthly pricing options and Buy American Act compliance required. Texas HHSC also solicited supplemental food and consumables statewide (IFB HHS0016792V2, response deadline March 19, 2026) comprising 210 line items with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years and delivery within seven days of order. The code shows no recent opportunities under its nominal scope alone — organic bolita beans do not appear named in any of the sample solicitations provided, indicating that the code, when tagged to actual procurement, functions as part of a larger institutional food service taxonomy rather than signaling demand for a specific product line.
