UNSPSC 50472600: Canned or jarred organic cauliflowers

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

UNSPSC 50472600 Canned or jarred organic cauliflowers is a Class code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, covers shelf-stable canned and jarred vegetables procured by institutional food service operations—principally state-operated facilities, school districts, and county services. The code's nominal scope emphasizes organic cauliflower specifically, but the recent opportunities posted under it show that issuing bodies use this classification for broader canned and jarred vegetable procurement alongside other shelf-stable food products. State and local buyers use the code to tag line items within larger consumables food service bids that span proteins, produce, dairy, condiments, and food service supplies. Soliciting bodies include state health and human services agencies operating state supported living centers and state hospitals, county nutrition programs, school districts, state corrections departments, and municipal or regional food service consortia. Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears as a repeat buyer, posting multiple IFBs for supplemental and consumable food products serving state facilities statewide; Oregon Department of Corrections, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, and several Georgia school districts also issue comparable food service procurements regularly.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0016792V2 in May 2026 for supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and supported living centers statewide—a 210-line-item procurement with a maximum potential contract value of $4.5 million over three years and a March 19, 2026 response deadline. The same agency posted IFB HHS0017449 in June 2026 for food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a July 13, 2026 deadline and prior-period historical value of $1.5 million. Gwinnett County issued an informal written quote IWQ 140229 in October 2026 requesting approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables, proteins, and sauces, due October 19, 2026. Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes via IFB in June 2026 at $13.75 per case from the prior February 2026 purchase, with Oregon-fabricated and resident bidder preferences of 5 percent applied. School districts in Georgia—Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools—each issued food bids in May and June 2026 encompassing hundreds of line items across multiple food categories with contract periods running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The code shows consistent procurement activity in institutional food service but little evidence of consumer retail or foodservice distributor demand at scale.
