UNSPSC 50473211: Canned or jarred organic camelot corn

The variety of organic corn known as organic camelot corn that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50473211 Canned or jarred organic camelot corn is a Commodity code that represents a narrow product line within the broader canned and jarred vegetables category. State and local governments procure canned vegetables—including canned corn and tomato products—primarily to support school nutrition programs, correctional facility food services, and state-supported living centers. Recent solicitations show that state and local buyers treat canned corn as one line item among hundreds in comprehensive food procurement bids, typically bundled with fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and other staple items rather than sourced separately. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (elementary through high schools), state correctional departments, state health and human services agencies operating residential care facilities, and county school systems across multiple states.

School districts in Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, and other states constitute the largest share of recent activity under related canned-vegetable codes, with solicitations from Ben Hill County Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Fairfax County Public Schools, and Liberty County Board of Education all seeking canned goods as components of annual K-12 food service contracts. State departments of corrections in Oregon and Texas prison systems solicit canned tomatoes and other preserved vegetables in high volume (7,616 cases of canned tomatoes from Oregon Department of Corrections in January 2026, due February 9; approximately 1,904 cases of tomato paste from the same agency in February 2026, due March 9). Texas Health and Human Services Commission procurement for state hospitals and state-supported living centers encompasses 210 line items including canned goods, with historical contract values reaching $4.5 million over three years. The geographic spread centers on the South (Georgia, Texas, Missouri) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with secondary activity in the Mid-Atlantic (Virginia, Illinois). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission Supplemental Food & Consumables procurement (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026), covering food and consumables for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with historical spend of $1.5 million for the prior 12-month period; Oregon Department of Corrections' canned tomato procurement (ITB S2910000016405, due April 6, 2026); and multiple school district food bids from Rockwood R-VI (grocery items due April 29, 2026) and Fairfax County Public Schools (Master Grocery K-12 bid due April 27, 2026). Buy American provisions are standard across school district bids, and canned vegetables must typically meet USDA Grade B or better with sodium restrictions, minimum shelf-life requirements of 12 months, and compliance with food safety standards including HACCP plans where applicable.
