UNSPSC 50476100: Canned or jarred organic spinaches

The type of organic vegetable known as organic spinaches that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50476100 Canned or jarred organic spinaches is a Class code under which state and local governments procure shelf-stable canned and jarred vegetables, primarily for institutional food service—canteens, cafeterias, distribution centers, and state-supported living facilities. The code captures both specific commodity buys (such as canned tomatoes or canned spinach by brand or specification) and broader consumable food solicitations that include these items as line items within larger food-service contracts. Recent opportunities show state and local bodies sourcing canned vegetables alongside complementary proteins, grains, dairy, and food service supplies in consolidated procurements. Issuing bodies span state health and human services departments (notably Texas HHS Commission and Oregon Department of Corrections), county boards (Gwinnett County, Georgia), county schools (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Georgia), and state departments (Illinois, Georgia). The work is straightforward commodity procurement with emphasis on USDA grading, shelf-life compliance, FDA labeling standards, delivery timelines (typically within seven days of order or 30 days of purchase-order issuance), and FOB Destination pricing that includes freight.

Geographic activity centers in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with smaller visible presence in Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products for El Paso State Supported Living Center (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026), which itemized fresh, frozen, dry, and refrigerated products and carried a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million; the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (posted June 5, 2026, due June 19, 2026, with the prior February 2026 purchase at $13.75 per case from California Healthy Harvest); and Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for comprehensive school nutrition products across fresh and canned categories (posted May 19, 2026, due June 15, 2026). Multi-line-item food procurements dominate the recent record; single-commodity solicitations (such as potatoes or canned tomatoes by variety) appear occasionally but with sparse specification detail in the available records. Vendor requirements commonly include three references for similar work, proof of specification conformance, HACCP plans where applicable, minimum liability insurance ($500,000 to $1 million per occurrence), E-Verify compliance, and debarment certification. Buy American provisions apply in school nutrition contexts. Price escalation or de-escalation based on USDA or CPI indices is standard in renewals.
