UNSPSC 50473802: Canned or jarred organic chinese garlic stems

The variety of organic garlic known as organic chinese garlic stems that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50473802 Canned or jarred organic chinese garlic stems is a Commodity code that covers specialty preserved vegetables for institutional foodservice and supply operations. State and local procurement activity under this code spans health and human services facilities, correctional institutions, school districts, and county departments of community services — all of which source shelf-stable food products in bulk for canteen operations, cafeteria programs, and emergency nutrition services. The work solicited includes purchasing preserved and canned vegetables, condiments, and related consumables as line items within larger food-service contracts; representatives of this work show state health agencies, school districts, and county boards of commissioners buying dozens to hundreds of line items at once, with canned and jarred items typically one category among fresh, frozen, dry, and refrigerated products in the same solicitation.

Recent activity is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and state supported living centers statewide, including IFB HHS0017449 (El Paso State Supported Living Center, due July 13, 2026) and HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center, due October 23, 2026 at 10:30 a.m.); the Georgia procurement stream includes school districts such as Ben Hill County Schools (IFB #26271, due June 15, 2026) and Burke County Public Schools (sealed bid due June 5, 2026 at 3:00 p.m.), and Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (IWQ 140229 for shelf-stable food products due October 19, 2026 at 3:00 p.m.). The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited canned tomatoes (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026), and the Illinois Department of Human Services sought weekly food supply fulfillment (27497DVAQUINCB52821, due June 26, 2026). Responses typically require firm, fixed pricing on detailed line-item price sheets, F.O.B. Destination delivery within seven days of order receipt, minimum three references, debarment certification, and compliance with federal food safety standards and Buy American Act requirements where applicable.
