UNSPSC 50475103: Canned or jarred organic clemson spineless okra

The variety of organic okra known as organic clemson spineless okra that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50475103 Canned or jarred organic clemson spineless okra is a Commodity code that describes preserved vegetable products state and local procurement offices buy as components of broader food service procurement, though recent solicitation activity for this specific product line is sparse. The code appears in the taxonomy to classify individual canned or jarred vegetable items, but state and local governments soliciting under related food procurement codes typically acquire okra as one line item among hundreds in larger food service contracts rather than as a standalone procurement focus. When okra appears in recent state and local food solicitations, it is bundled within broader canned-vegetable or meal-component categories serving correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and state institutional food services.

Recent activity under this code shows limited standalone solicitation; instead, okra would be specified as a line item within larger food procurement efforts. The most relevant recent opportunities show state and local procurement offices in Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Illinois, and Missouri soliciting food products for institutional food service, with canned vegetables typically included as components of broader specifications. For example, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 in June 2026 for food and consumable products at state supported living centers, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFB 304T-26-300CF in May 2026 for cafeteria food products spanning approximately 382 line items across institutional meal service. Similarly, the Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S2910000016089 in February 2026 and S2910000016405 in March 2026 for canned tomato paste and tomato products, respectively, demonstrating demand for shelf-stable canned vegetables in correctional institutional settings. School districts in Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia also issue regular food procurement RFPs and IFBs that would include canned vegetables within broader nutrition program supply contracts. The commodity code itself does not generate standalone procurement activity at the state and local level; vendors pursuing this code should focus on participating in larger institutional food service solicitations where canned or jarred vegetables are specified line items rather than expecting direct procurements limited to a single vegetable product.
