UNSPSC 50475535: Canned or jarred organic tabasco peppers

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

UNSPSC 50475535 Canned or jarred organic tabasco peppers is a Commodity code that covers shelf-stable pepper products for institutional food service and supply operations. State and local governments procure canned and jarred peppers as part of broader consumables-and-food solicitations serving state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county social-services operations. The work involves supplying bulk food items to institutional kitchens and canteen operations where peppers appear as line items within larger food-service contracts that also include proteins, canned vegetables, grains, condiments, and disposable food-service supplies. Issuing bodies span state health and human services departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), state correctional systems (Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state departments of corrections (Oregon), county boards of commissioners (Gwinnett County, Georgia), county schools (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Georgia), and state agencies (State of Illinois, State of Georgia). The code sees activity from both large state-level procurement offices and smaller municipal and county education and social-services entities.

Geographic spread covers Texas, Georgia, Illinois, and Oregon as primary sources of recent activity. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017872 for consumables and noncontract food items for Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due August 25, 2026), which lists peppers among 20 line items of food and food-service supplies for fiscal year 2027; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including sauces and canned vegetables for the Department of Community Services (due October 19, 2026); Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for food products supporting a school nutrition program across four schools (due June 15, 2026); and the Texas Comptroller's IFB 304T-26-300CF for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products to supply Texas Department of Criminal Justice warehouses across five geographic areas (due May 4, 2026, extended via addendum). Peppers and pepper products appear as subordinate items within these broader consumables solicitations rather than as standalone line-item awards, reflecting their role as ingredients and condiments within larger institutional food-service supply chains.
