UNSPSC 50472910: Canned or jarred organic tres fine maraichere chicory

The variety of organic chicory known as organic tres fine maraichere chicory that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50472910, Canned or jarred organic tres fine maraichere chicory (Commodity), appears in state and local procurement records with minimal recent activity specific to the code's narrow product definition. State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily purchasing shelf-stable food products for institutional food service — specifically canned and jarred goods for state-supported living centers, county social services programs, school nutrition operations, correctional facilities, and other public institutions. The issuing bodies span state health and human services commissions, county boards of commissioners, school districts, and state departments of corrections. Recent solicitations show that agencies source these items as part of much broader consumable-food procurements encompassing dozens to hundreds of line items, where individual canned-vegetable or specialty-ingredient SKUs represent a small fraction of total scope. Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears as a repeat buyer, with multiple IFB notices posted for state-supported living centers in Lufkin and El Paso; Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools) and Gwinnett County also active in the same period.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia in the most recent six months, with secondary activity in Oregon and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), covering 22 line items of prepared foods and food service supplies with annual estimated quantities of 1–24 cases per item; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products including canned proteins, vegetables, and sauces for senior services (due October 19, 2026); and the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes meeting USDA Grade B or better, with delivery to Salem (due June 19, 2026). These solicitations typically impose strict FDA/USDA compliance, require multiple references and company-qualification narratives, and mandate delivery within 7–30 days of purchase order receipt on FOB Destination terms. The code shows limited recent specialization in the organic tres fine maraichere chicory category specifically; solicitations instead reflect demand for canned and jarred vegetables, proteins, and condiments in bulk quantities for institutional meal programs.
