UNSPSC 50475809: Canned or jarred organic nori

The variety of organic sea vegetables known as organic nori that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50475809 Canned or jarred organic nori, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The single opportunity in the recent-opportunities block—Illinois Veterans Home's FY-27 quarterly food order (solicitation 27497DVAQUINCB52821, RFQ, due June 26, 2026)—does not list nori or any seaweed products among its 24 line items, which focus on conventional proteins, dairy, prepared foods, and vegetables. The code's nominal scope does not align with the broader food and produce procurement activity documented across the recent opportunities block, which emphasizes fresh produce, proteins, canned vegetables, dairy, and prepared entrees for school districts, correctional facilities, and state health agencies.

State and local food service procurement remains robust across school districts, corrections departments, and human services agencies in Georgia, Missouri, Texas, Oregon, Illinois, and Virginia, but activity under UNSPSC 50475809 is not evident. If pursuing vendors in specialty organic or Asian food ingredients, consider monitoring broader food commodity codes (such as canned vegetables or specialty foods) where schools and institutional buyers are actively issuing RFPs and IFBs with response windows typically 30–45 days. The absence of nori in recent solicitations suggests limited or no current demand for this product category at the state and local level.
