UNSPSC 50473005: Canned or jarred organic dwarf bok choy

The variety of organic chinese cabbage known as organic dwarf bok choy that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50473005, Canned or jarred organic dwarf bok choy, is a Commodity code under which state and local governments solicit limited direct procurement activity—the recent-opportunities block contains no active solicitations specifically naming this product. The code's nominal scope targets preserved Asian vegetables for institutional food service, but recent state and local contract activity across this UNSPSC tier consists almost entirely of broader food and produce solicitations that reference canned vegetables, tomato products, fresh produce, eggs, and meal-service staples without isolating single-ingredient preserved items. School districts, state corrections departments, state health and human services agencies, and other institutional food-service buyers issue the bulk of food procurement notices, but their RFPs and IFBs typically aggregate dozens or hundreds of line items into category-level buys—fresh produce bundles, canned goods suites, or complete food-service packages—rather than specify individual SKUs such as organic dwarf bok choy.

Recent opportunities from Illinois, Texas, Oregon, Georgia, and Missouri demonstrate the institutional buying pattern: the State of Illinois issued an RFQ for quarterly food orders (27497DVAQUINCB52821, due June 26, 2026) for the Illinois Veterans Home; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026, with a prior-period value of $1.5 million); the Oregon Department of Corrections sought canned tomatoes and tomato paste in bulk (S2910000017145 and S2910000016089, due June 19 and March 9, 2026 respectively); and multiple Georgia and Missouri school districts issued comprehensive grocery and produce bids covering 200 to 900 line items at once. Vendors pursuing this code should expect to bid within larger institutional food packages rather than on preserved Asian vegetables in isolation; direct commercial supply of branded or specialty organic bok choy at the commodity level does not appear in the recent state and local pipeline.
