UNSPSC 50474821: Canned or jarred organic woodear mushrooms

The variety of organic mushrooms known as organic woodear mushrooms that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50474821 Canned or jarred organic woodear mushrooms is a Commodity code that nominally describes specialty preserved fungi, but recent state and local opportunities show the code is applied to broad consumable food procurement—fresh, frozen, canned, and dried produce; proteins; dairy; condiments; and food service supplies. State and local governments buying under this code span state health and human services agencies operating residential and medical facilities, county departments and school nutrition programs, corrections departments, and independent school districts. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission is a standout repeat buyer, appearing multiple times in recent solicitations for food and consumables supplying state supported living centers and state hospitals statewide. Work ranges from single-facility canteen and campus supply contracts to statewide multi-warehouse procurement serving dozens of locations, with line-item counts typically spanning 20 to 400+ items. Issuing bodies commonly use IFB, RFQ, or ITQ notice types, require firm fixed pricing, F.O.B. Destination delivery, compliance with USDA standards and FDA regulations, HACCP plans where applicable, and three or more references. Contracts typically run 12 months with renewal or extension options available.
