UNSPSC 50473232: Canned or jarred organic iochief corn

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

UNSPSC 50473232 Canned or jarred organic iochief corn, a Commodity code, represents shelf-stable canned vegetable products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service — primarily state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and senior services operations. The code captures canned vegetables as line items within broader food and consumables solicitations rather than as standalone specialized purchases; recent opportunities show canned vegetables bundled among dozens of food categories in large institutional food service contracts. State health and human services agencies dominate the issuing-body mix, with Texas Health and Human Services Commission appearing repeatedly as a buyer for state-supported living centers and state hospitals, alongside state correctional departments (Oregon, Texas), county boards of commissioners, city and county school districts, and state senior services programs. Geographic activity centers on Texas and Oregon, with secondary activity in Georgia; Texas solicitations account for the majority of recent postings, driven by HHSC's recurring food service contracts for multiple state facilities.

Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), covering 210 line items across fresh, frozen, dry, and refrigerated food products including canned vegetables as part of a $1.5 million historical annual value contract; the Oregon Department of Corrections Purchasing Division's IFB S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026) at $13.75 per case in the prior purchase, delivered to Salem for eight full truck loads; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products spanning 382 line items including canned and fresh vegetables (response deadline extended to May 4, 2026), with awards made per line item based on best value. School nutrition programs such as Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia) and Burke County Public Schools (Georgia) also solicit canned vegetables within comprehensive food bids covering nearly 400 line items for multi-school distribution. Canned vegetables appear as commodity line items priced per case or unit with firm, fixed pricing required through initial contract terms, delivery within 7 to 30 days of order, and FOB Destination terms prepaid and included.
