UNSPSC 50476102: Canned or jarred organic bloomsdale spinach

The variety of organic spinach known as organic bloomsdale spinach that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50476102 Canned or jarred organic bloomsdale spinach is a Commodity code encompassing shelf-stable canned and jarred vegetables for institutional food service, though recent state and local solicitations under this code show minimal direct activity for organic spinach specifically. The work state and local governments actually buy under this family involves broader consumable food products for state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county senior services — typically as part of larger multi-item food service contracts rather than single-commodity procurements. Issuing bodies include state health and human services departments (Texas HHSC, Oregon Department of Corrections), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia), county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), and state-level procurement offices. Most recent opportunities are bundled food procurement IFBs and IWQs that include canned vegetables among dozens of line items, with canned tomatoes, general canned vegetables, and shelf-stable proteins appearing more frequently in posted solicitations than organic spinach by brand name.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon based on recent postings. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (responses due July 13, 2026), which encompassed 210 line items across fresh, frozen, and canned products with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years; the Oregon Department of Corrections' June 2026 IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (bids due June 19, 2026) delivered to Salem; Ben Hill County Schools' June 2026 IFB for school nutrition food (bids due June 15, 2026) spanning hundreds of line items including canned fruits and vegetables; and Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' October 2026 IWQ for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and proteins (quotes due October 19, 2026). Organic-specific or brand-restricted procurements are not evident in the recent postings; most solicitations specify brand-specific items with "or approved equivalent" language, allowing substitution of non-organic alternatives. Response windows are typically 2–3 weeks from posting; F.O.B. Destination pricing with prepaid freight is standard. Minimal recent activity directly targets organic bloomsdale spinach as a standalone commodity line.
