UNSPSC 50474103: Canned or jarred organic borage

The variety of organic herbs known as organic borage that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50474103 Canned or jarred organic borage, a Commodity code, shows limited direct relevance to current state and local procurement activity. Recent solicitations tagged under this code actually span broad shelf-stable food and consumable purchases rather than specialty borage products. State and local purchasing bodies—including county departments, state health and human services commissions, state correctional agencies, and school districts—issue these solicitations through RFPs, RFQs, and IFBs. The scope of work encompasses bulk food service procurement for institutional facilities including senior centers, state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, and cafeteria operations, with line-item lists that typically include proteins, canned vegetables, dairy, grains, frozen entrees, and consumables rather than branded organic borage. The issuing bodies reflect institutional food service operations rather than specialty organic food distribution channels.

Recent solicitation activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with activity from Gwinnett County, Georgia; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (via the Comptroller of Public Accounts); the State of Illinois; and the State of Georgia. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 (RFQ for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, and canned vegetables, due October 19, 2026); Texas HHSC's HHS0017799 and HHS0017798 (IFBs for food service and canteen groceries for Mexia State Supported Living Center, due August 25, 2026); and Texas Comptroller on behalf of TDCJ's IFB 304T-26-300CF (approximately 382 line items spanning proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, and canned and fresh vegetables, due May 4, 2026). The code shows no evidence of actual borage procurement; the tagging appears misaligned with the specialty organic nature of the commodity code itself.
