UNSPSC 50474700: Canned or jarred organic malanga

The type of organic vegetable known as organic malanga that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50474700 Canned or jarred organic malanga, a Class code, represents a narrow commodity within state and local food procurement, but the recent state and local opportunities block shows no active solicitations specifically for organic malanga or closely related specialty root vegetables. The opportunities posted under this code span a much broader food-supply landscape: bulk canned tomatoes, fresh produce, grocery staples for school nutrition programs, and supplemental foods for state institutions. State and local governments procure canned and jarred foods extensively through school districts, corrections departments, health and human services agencies, and veterans homes, but the sourcing activity recorded here emphasizes high-volume commodities such as canned tomatoes, fresh fruits and vegetables, proteins, and dairy rather than organic malanga, an uncommon specialty item in institutional food service.

Issuing bodies across the recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, state education agencies in Georgia and Illinois, county school systems in Georgia and Missouri, and specialized programs such as the Illinois Veterans Home. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia (Douglas County, Burke County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, and Savannah-Chatham school systems), Texas (HHSC and TDCJ), Oregon (ODOC), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), and Illinois (state veterans facilities). Representative solicitations show the breadth of the market: Texas HHSC HHS0017449 (IFB for food and consumable products for El Paso State Supported Living Center, due July 13, 2026, with estimated prior-period value of $1.5 million); Oregon ODOC S2910000017145 (ITB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes, due June 19, 2026, previous purchase $13.75 per case); and Fairfax County Public Schools 2000004323 (IFB for Master Grocery K-12 covering 45 schools and distribution kitchens, due April 27, 2026). The code shows no recent market activity for organic malanga specifically; canned specialty root vegetables appear absent from state and local food procurement patterns as reflected in these opportunities.
