UNSPSC 50473256: Canned or jarred organic seneca white knight corn

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

UNSPSC 50473256 Canned or jarred organic Seneca white knight corn is a Commodity code that describes shelf-stable canned vegetables procured by state and local governments primarily for institutional food service operations—state health and human services agencies, county social services departments, school nutrition programs, and departments of corrections. Recent opportunities show state and local buyers sourcing canned and jarred vegetables as part of broader consumables and food-supply contracts serving cafeterias, canteens, assisted-living facilities, and prisoner feeding programs rather than as standalone specialty commodity purchases. The issuing bodies span state health and human services commissions (Texas), county boards of commissioners (Georgia), school districts (Georgia), and state correctional and social-service agencies (Oregon, Texas, Illinois), with state agencies and school districts appearing most active in the recent record. Work solicited under the code includes food service consumables bundled with fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and supplies—canned vegetables are a line item within much larger food-supply contracts rather than sole-source purchases.

Activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with supporting solicitations from Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (bids due July 13, 2026), covering 210+ line items of shelf-stable and fresh foods with a prior-period value of $1.5 million; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables for the Department of Community Services (quotes due October 19, 2026); and the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB S2910000017145 for canned tomatoes—7,616 cases at approximately $13.75 per case in the prior purchase (bids due June 19, 2026). Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools in Georgia also solicited school nutrition food bids encompassing canned vegetables alongside fresh and frozen items. Canned or jarred vegetables appear consistently but as components of multi-category food procurements rather than isolated specialty items, suggesting that vendors pursuing this code should position themselves within broader food-supply contracts and emphasize scale, delivery reliability, compliance certifications (USDA Grade B or better, FDA standards, HACCP, Buy American Act compliance for school districts), and ability to serve multiple facility types across the jurisdiction.
