UNSPSC 50475537: Canned or jarred organic tepin peppers

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

UNSPSC 50475537 Canned or jarred organic tepin peppers is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of shelf-stable canned and jarred food products for institutional food service operations. Recent solicitations under this code show that state and local governments are purchasing bulk quantities of canned vegetables, preserved condiments, and related food service consumables — not specifically organic tepin peppers as a standalone line item, but rather as part of larger food and consumables contracts where canned or jarred products are combined with proteins, dairy, grains, and food service supplies. Issuing bodies include state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Department of State Health Services), state correctional departments (Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Department of Criminal Justice), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), and specialized state facilities. The mix spans dedicated state procurement divisions, county purchasing offices, and school nutrition programs; Texas state agencies and school districts in Georgia appear most active in the recent window.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon based on the most recent solicitations. Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFBs for supplemental food and consumables (HHS0017449 and HHS0017872) for state supported living centers and state hospitals; the El Paso facility contract (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026) carried historical spend of $1.5 million annually. Oregon Department of Corrections sought 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026) at approximately $13.75 per case from the prior purchase. Texas Department of Criminal Justice Statewide Procurement Division solicited approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic warehouse areas (304T26300CF, due May 4, 2026). Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested quotes for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins, soups, and vegetables (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026). School nutrition programs in Georgia — Ben Hill County Schools (IFB #26271, due June 15, 2026) and Burke County Public Schools (due June 5, 2026) — each sought comprehensive food supply contracts with hundreds of line items across multiple categories. Delivery windows typically range from 72 hours to seven days, and most contracts run July 1 to June 30 (school year) or September 1 to August 31 (fiscal year), with price adjustments on renewal limited to inflation indices or third-party market verification.
