UNSPSC 50475217: Canned or jarred organic sweet onions

The variety of organic onions known as organic sweet onions that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50475217 Canned or jarred organic sweet onions is a Commodity code that does not appear in any recent state and local procurement opportunities. The most recent solicitations tagged to this code—covering consumable foods, general grocery procurement, and shelf-stable pantry items for state facilities, county nutrition programs, and school districts—do not specifically solicit canned or jarred organic sweet onions as a line item or identifiable product category. The opportunities instead request broad-based food supply contracts encompassing dozens or hundreds of line items across multiple produce, protein, dairy, and dry-goods categories, with brand-specific or approved-equivalent options and no emphasis on organic certification.

The absence of specific activity under this commodity code does not reflect zero procurement volume—state and local agencies and school districts clearly purchase shelf-stable vegetables and condiments regularly through consolidated IFB and RFQ processes. However, buyers appear to aggregate organic and conventional canned vegetables under generic commodity codes or to source them through existing cooperative purchasing agreements and standing open-market contracts rather than through targeted solicitations. The code shows little relevant recent activity based on the opportunities in the dataset. State and local buyers conducting recent food procurements have been agencies including the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, the Oregon Department of Corrections, Gwinnett County (Georgia), Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and the State of Illinois, primarily across Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, but none have posted RFQs, RFPs, IFBs, or ITBs specifically for canned or jarred organic sweet onions.
