UNSPSC 50475908: Canned or jarred organic pikant shallots

The variety of organic shallots known as organic pikant shallots that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50475908, Canned or jarred organic pikant shallots (Commodity), does not match the scope of work actually solicited under this code in state and local procurement. The recent-opportunities block identifies ten state and local contract notices posted between May 2026 and October 2026 that nominally cite this code or its parent family; however, none of the solicitations describe procurement of canned or jarred pikant shallots or any similar specialty condiment. Instead, the opportunities show purchases of broad food categories — fresh, frozen, and canned proteins; dairy; produce; grains; beverages; and generic condiments and sauces — along with food service supplies (containers, napkins, straws, foil sheets) and kitchen equipment. The mismatch between the code's stated commodity and the actual goods being bought suggests either systematic misclassification by the issuing bodies or that this code sees minimal genuine use in state and local procurement.

The issuing bodies across the ten records span Texas state agencies (Health and Human Services Commission, Department of Criminal Justice, Comptroller of Public Accounts), Georgia counties and school districts (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), Illinois state procurement, and Oregon state agencies (Department of Corrections). Notices posted between May and October 2026 show activity from Texas (four opportunities), Georgia (four opportunities), Oregon (two opportunities), and Illinois (one opportunity). Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0018082 for consumables foods at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County's informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (due October 19, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools' food bid encompassing fresh produce, meat, dairy, and paper products for four school locations (due June 15, 2026). No opportunities showing procurement of organic pikant shallots or similar specialty preserved shallots appear in the recent activity.
