UNSPSC 50474905: Canned or jarred organic southern mustard

The variety of organic mustard known as organic southern mustard that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50474905 Canned or jarred organic southern mustard is a Commodity code that in practice covers shelf-stable condiments and prepared food products procured by state and local food service operations, though recent activity under this specific code shows limited direct visibility into mustard solicitations alone. State and local procurement under the broader food-service commodity space — which this code occupies — spans state health and human services agencies operating supported living centers and state hospitals, county social services departments, school nutrition programs, and correctional facilities. These issuing bodies acquire packaged and canned food products, condiments, seasonings, and food service supplies in high volume for institutional dining and nutrition programs. The scope of work is institutional food procurement: sealed bids and informal quotes for shelf-stable items, frozen and refrigerated goods, fresh produce, proteins, dairy products, condiments, and consumable supplies delivered on F.O.B. Destination terms within 7 to 30 days of order. Contracts typically run 12 months with renewal options and require vendor compliance with federal food-safety standards, E-Verify, debarment certification, liability insurance, HACCP plans, and Buy American Act requirements where applicable.

Recent activity shows strong procurement momentum across Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted multiple food service solicitations for supported living centers and state hospitals (IFB HHS0017449 for El Paso and IFB HHS0016792V2 for statewide supplemental food, the latter with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years), and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts issued IFB 304T-26-300CF on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic areas with a response due date extended to May 4, 2026. Georgia school districts — Ben Hill County Schools (due June 15, 2026) and Burke County Public Schools (bids due June 5, 2026) — solicited comprehensive food procurements spanning nearly 400 line items each. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable foods (due October 19, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections posted IFB S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026). The Illinois State procurement for quarterly food orders (bid due June 26, 2026) and an undetailed Oregon potato procurement (due July 27, 2026) also show state-level activity. These solicitations characterize a steady, decentralized market where institutional food service demand drives regular competitive bidding across multiple states with no single dominant agency concentration.
