UNSPSC 50474202: Canned or jarred organic collard greens

The variety of organic kale known as organic collard greens that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50474202 Canned or jarred organic collard greens is a Commodity code. State and local governments procuring under this code are buying shelf-stable canned and jarred vegetables — predominantly as ingredients for institutional food service operations at state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county senior services. The recent solicitations show that collard greens and similar canned vegetables are sourced alongside broader consumables buys that include proteins, dairy, frozen items, condiments, and food service supplies. Issuing bodies span state health and human services commissions (Texas), state corrections departments (Oregon), county boards of commissioners and schools (Georgia), and school districts across multiple states. The work is straightforward procurement of commodity food items with firm, fixed pricing, delivery within seven days to thirty days of order, and compliance with USDA and FDA standards; no specialized installation, labor, or ongoing service is involved.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for consumable foods serving state supported living centers in Lufkin and El Paso (HHS0018082, due October 23, 2026; HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026; and HHS0016792V2, a three-year supplemental food contract with a $4.5 million maximum value). The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026) with a 5 percent preference for Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-resident bidders. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables for senior services (PE77023NONST2027000000782, due October 19, 2026). Georgia school districts — Ben Hill County Schools (IFB #26271, due June 15, 2026) and Burke County Public Schools (PE55037NONST2027000000007, due June 5, 2026) — each procured hundreds of line items spanning fresh and canned vegetables for institutional meal programs. Activity remains active through October 2026, with commodity food procurement a recurring, high-volume category across institutional buyers.
