UNSPSC 50473249: Canned or jarred organic pristine corn

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

UNSPSC 50473249 Canned or jarred organic pristine corn is a Commodity code representing specialty food products that state and local governments procure as part of broader school nutrition, institutional food service, and state facility meal programs. The recent opportunities tagged to this code show activity in school district food service procurement, state institutional feeding (correctional facilities, health and human services centers), and state agency food operations, though the opportunities in the block span a much wider range of canned and fresh food products than organic corn alone. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Ben Hill County Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Burke County Public Schools, Muscogee County School District, and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System all posting food procurement RFPs and IFBs in the past four months. State agencies including the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, and State of Illinois also solicit regularly under related food codes. These jurisdictions treat food procurement as high-volume, recurring contracting activity tied to calendar cycles (school years, fiscal years, quarterly quarters).

Recent activity clusters in Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Oregon, Illinois, and Virginia, with school district procurement concentrated in the Southeast and Midwest. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, with historical value of $1.5 million for the prior period), Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 delivery across 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026), and Rockwood R-VI School District's paired solicitations for grocery NOI and grocery items spanning over 900 line items (due April 29, 2026). The Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016089 for tomato paste (due March 9, 2026) and ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026, approximately 7,616 cases at $13.75 per case from the prior cycle) show state correctional systems buying branded canned goods in bulk with preference programs favoring Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-resident vendors. Evaluation across these opportunities typically emphasizes lowest responsive bid within specification, compliance with Buy American Act provisions (domestic agricultural content above 51 percent), USDA grade standards, delivery timeliness, insurance and bonding, and past vendor performance. School districts commonly require firm fixed pricing with limited midterm adjustments tied to manufacturer price increases of 5 percent or greater supported by third-party market documentation (USDA Agricultural Marketing Service, Consumer Price Index). Contract terms typically run July-to-June or calendar-year cycles with renewal options extending three to five years.
