UNSPSC 50474125: Canned or jarred organic thyme

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

UNSPSC 50474125, Canned or jarred organic thyme (Commodity), does not reflect what state and local governments are actually buying under this code. The recent solicitations tagged with this code are for broad food supply and consumable procurement — fresh produce, dairy, proteins, grains, condiments, and miscellaneous staple items for school nutrition programs, state institutions, and correctional facilities — not specialty culinary ingredients like canned or jarred organic thyme. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the opportunity database or that vendors responding to school meal and institutional food service contracts are expected to supply items across a wide commodity band that includes but is not limited to this specific code.

The issuing bodies in the block are state departments, school districts, and purchasing cooperatives: the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Department of State Health Services (statewide institutional food service), the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (prison food service), Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, and Douglas County School System (K-12 meal programs), plus the State of Illinois and State of Georgia. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Virginia, and Missouri. Representative opportunities include the Texas HHS El Paso State Supported Living Center food and consumable IFB (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026, $1.5 million prior-period historical value), Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 term contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026, covering 45 schools plus distribution kitchens), and Rockwood School District child nutrition services grocery items (CHILDNUTRITIONSERVICESGROCERYITEMS20262027, due April 29, 2026, over 900 line items). The code shows no activity aligned to its nominal scope; pursue this code only if your firm supplies broad food-service categories to state institutions or K-12 programs, not specialty organic herbs.
