UNSPSC 50473501: Canned or jarred organic bambino eggplants

The variety of organic eggplants known as organic bambino eggplants that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50473501 Canned or jarred organic bambino eggplants (Commodity) does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually purchasing under this code. The recent solicitation record shows no procurement activity for canned or jarred organic eggplants of any variety. Instead, state and local food service operations—primarily state health and human services agencies, county school systems, corrections departments, and county social services—are actively soliciting canned and shelf-stable food products across broad categories: canned vegetables (tomatoes, mixed vegetables), canned proteins, canned fruits, dried goods, condiments, sauces, and related food-service consumables and supplies. The issuing bodies span state departments of health and human services, state departments of corrections, county school nutrition programs, and county social services agencies. The recent opportunities show no demand signal for the specific commodity named in this code.

Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' request for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (USDA Grade B or better, due June 19, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables across 210 line items including fresh, frozen, dry, and refrigerated food products (maximum potential value $4.5 million over three years, due March 19, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for multiple food categories with hundreds of line items to supply four schools (due June 15, 2026). Activity is concentrated in Texas and Georgia, with secondary activity in Oregon and Illinois. The code assignment appears to be a data artifact—no sourced opportunity describes procurement for canned or jarred organic eggplants or bambino eggplants in any preservation form. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local purposes and monitor the broader canned-vegetable and shelf-stable-food commodity codes that are generating volume activity instead.
