UNSPSC 50474614: Canned or jarred organic green leaf lettuce

The variety of organic lettuce known as organic green leaf lettuce that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50474614 Canned or jarred organic green leaf lettuce is a Commodity code covering shelf-stable leafy vegetables used by state and local institutions to supply food service operations, though recent state and local solicitations under this code show limited standalone procurement of organic lettuce itself. Instead, the code appears in broader consumables and food-service RFPs and IFBs where canned or jarred vegetables are bundled as line items within larger multi-category food supplies contracts. State and local buyers soliciting under related food commodity codes include state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies operating supported living centers and hospitals, county governments managing senior and community services, and school districts supplying cafeteria nutrition programs across multiple school facilities. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, and multiple Georgia school districts (Burke County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools) and the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners appear as repeat institutional buyers in recent solicitations targeting food service and consumables.

Recent activity spans Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has issued multiple IFBs for supplemental and consumable food products serving state hospitals and supported living centers statewide, including HHS0016792V2 (due March 19, 2026, maximum potential value $4.5 million over three years) and HHS0017449 for El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, with prior-period value of $1.5 million). The Oregon Department of Corrections requested bids for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026), a comparable shelf-stable vegetable procurement. School district food bids in Georgia—Burke County Public Schools (PE55037NONST2027000000007, due June 5, 2026) and Ben Hill County Schools (PE61000NONST2027000000006, due June 15, 2026)—encompass canned fruits and vegetables as line items within broader nutrition procurement. The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an informal written quote (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables for senior services. No recent standalone solicitations for canned or jarred organic green leaf lettuce specifically were identified in the current opportunities block.
