UNSPSC 50475529: Canned or jarred organic peperoncini peppers

The variety of organic peppers known as organic peperoncini peppers that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50475529 Canned or jarred organic peperoncini peppers is a Commodity code covering shelf-stable specialty pepper products that state and local governments procure as part of broader food-service and nutrition operations. The code sees activity across institutional food service contexts — state health and human services agencies operating supported living centers and state hospitals, county and city nutrition programs, school districts, and correctional facilities. These buyers are sourcing peperoncini peppers as one line item within comprehensive food-service bids that span dozens or hundreds of items including proteins, produce, dairy, condiments, and supplies. The work is transactional: vendors respond to itemized line-item procurement specifications, price on a per-unit or per-case basis, and commit to delivery timelines and volume expectations set by the buying entity. Issuing bodies mix state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois), county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Ben Hill County), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, and others), and specialized state procurement offices acting on behalf of correctional and health systems.

Recent opportunities show activity concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for consumables and food products serving state supported living centers — including HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center, IFB due October 23, 2026), HHS0017449 (El Paso State Supported Living Center, IFB due July 13, 2026), and HHS0016792v2 (supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide, IFB due March 19, 2026 with a potential contract value of $4.5 million over three years). Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia is sourcing 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and sauces through IWQ 140229 (quotes due October 19, 2026); Ben Hill County Schools is bidding school nutrition food covering multiple produce and prepared-food categories (IFB #26271, bids due June 15, 2026); Burke County Public Schools in Waynesboro, Georgia is seeking comprehensive school nutrition procurement across nearly 400 line items (bids due June 5, 2026); and Oregon Department of Corrections posted a bid for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (bids due June 19, 2026). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice through the Comptroller of Public Accounts issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for approximately 382 cafeteria food product line items to supply warehouse locations across five geographic areas (response due May 4, 2026). Most recent solicitations use IFB (Invitation for Bid) format with F.O.B. Destination delivery, firm fixed pricing, and 30-day delivery windows; contracting offices emphasize USDA grade compliance, specification adherence, and past vendor performance as evaluation criteria.
