UNSPSC 50473218: Canned or jarred organic divinity corn

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

UNSPSC 50473218 Canned or jarred organic divinity corn (Commodity) represents a narrow product line within state and local food procurement, appearing in the recent opportunities primarily as one item among hundreds in broader food-service solicitations rather than as a standalone procurement focus. State and local governments buy this commodity code as part of comprehensive food-supply contracts for institutional foodservice — school nutrition programs, state agency cafeterias, correctional facilities, and health and human services centers — where organic corn features among dozens of canned vegetable offerings in fixed-price annual food-supply agreements. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code span school districts of varying sizes, state health and human services commissions, state departments of corrections, and individual state agency foodservice operations. School districts dominate the recent-opportunity mix, including Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia), Burke County Public Schools (Georgia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), alongside Texas Health and Human Services Commission facilities, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Home, and state agency cafeteria operations.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and Southwest, with Texas, Georgia, Missouri, and Oregon showing the highest recent posting volume, followed by Illinois and Virginia. The representative recent opportunities show school districts and state agencies issuing RFPs, RFQs, and IFBs for annual food contracts running July 1 through June 30, with responses due in mid-to-late spring. Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products for El Paso State Supported Living Center with estimated annual value of $1.5 million for the prior period; Fairfax County Public Schools posted IFB 2000004323 (due April 27, 2026) for Master Grocery K-12 requiring weekly delivery to 45 schools and distribution centers; and Ben Hill County Schools issued IFB #26271 (due June 15, 2026) for comprehensive food products across multiple categories with quarterly price escalation permitted based on USDA or Consumer Price Index data. Canned organic corn typically appears as one line item among 200–900 items in these solicitations, bundled with other canned vegetables under commodity codes and USDA-compliant nutritional specifications. Pursuit depends on scale — firms with integrated canned-goods distribution capability and school-district or state-agency foodservice relationships encounter regular small-volume commodity-line opportunities, but standalone competitive advantage in organic corn is minimal given the commodity nature and the prevalence of brand-specific or equal purchasing language.
