UNSPSC 50473016: Canned or jarred organic yau choy sum

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

UNSPSC 50473016 Canned or jarred organic yau choy sum, a Commodity code, describes shelf-stable preserved vegetables that state and local governments procure primarily through institutional food service operations—but the recent solicitation record shows no direct purchasing activity under this specific code. Instead, state and local food service solicitations at the commodity level typically embed canned or preserved vegetables within broader food-supply contracts that span proteins, fresh produce, dairy, dry goods, and consumables. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia school districts, and county nutrition programs are the primary institutional buyers requesting canned vegetables in bulk, though they generally solicit canned tomatoes, mixed vegetables, or unspecified canned produce rather than the organic yau choy sum variant this code names. When preserved vegetables appear in recent state and local RFPs and IFBs, they are line items within larger food-procurement frameworks rather than standalone solicitations, and the purchasing bodies span state health and corrections agencies, county school nutrition programs, and county senior services operations.

No recent opportunities in the block reference canned or jarred organic yau choy sum by name or UNSPSC 50473016. Recent activity instead clusters around broader food categories: the Texas HHS Commission solicited consumables for state supported living centers (IFB HHS0018082, due October 23, 2026, and IFB HHS0017872, due August 25, 2026); Gwinnett County requested shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and proteins (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026); the Oregon Department of Corrections requested approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes to USDA Grade B or better (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026); and Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools each solicited comprehensive food procurements spanning produce, proteins, and canned goods for school nutrition programs (both closing in June 2026). The code shows little actionable recent activity under its specific commodity designation; vendors interested in canned vegetables should track broader institutional food-service RFPs and IFBs in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon where preserved vegetables are components of line-item procurement rather than standalone purchases.
