UNSPSC 50471824: Canned or jarred organic green beans

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

UNSPSC 50471824 Canned or jarred organic green beans is a Commodity code. State and local governments purchasing under this code are acquiring shelf-stable canned or jarred vegetables for school nutrition programs, institutional food service, and centralized supply operations. The recent solicitations show that canned and jarred vegetables—including canned green beans, canned tomatoes, and similar shelf-stable produce—are procured alongside broader food baskets for school cafeterias, correctional facilities, health and human services institutions, and state-supported living centers. Issuing bodies include school districts (elementary through high school nutrition programs), state departments of corrections, state health and human services commissions, and county school systems. These entities typically solicit on an annual or multi-year cycle, with school nutrition programs issuing the majority of recent activity. School districts represent the dominant buyer category, with repeat procurement across multiple districts in Georgia, Missouri, Illinois, Texas, and Oregon.

Recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000016089 for 1,904 cases of tomato paste due March 9, 2026; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products (including canned goods) for state-supported living centers, with proposals due July 13, 2026; and multiple school district food service solicitations such as Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 due April 27, 2026, and Ben Hill County Schools IFB #26271 for food products due June 15, 2026. Geographic activity is concentrated in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas, Florida) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with secondary activity in Illinois and Missouri. School nutrition programs dominate the commodity code's recent activity, though correctional and health services facilities represent a steady secondary market. Canned vegetables are typically procured as line items within larger food aggregations rather than as sole-source commodities, and pricing remains firm throughout contract periods with adjustments permitted only at renewal or upon documented manufacturer price increases exceeding specified thresholds (typically 5 percent).
