UNSPSC 50476104: Canned or jarred organic horenso spinach

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

UNSPSC 50476104 Canned or jarred organic horenso spinach is a Commodity code that spans shelf-stable canned and jarred vegetable products procured by state and local governments for institutional food service operations, particularly state health and human services facilities, county food assistance programs, and school nutrition programs. The code represents a narrow product line within broader institutional food procurement; recent solicitations show that state and local buying offices source canned vegetables — including canned spinach, tomatoes, and mixed vegetables — as components of larger food service contracts rather than as standalone line items. State health and human services commissions dominate the issuing-body mix, with the Texas Health and Human Services Commission appearing repeatedly as a major repeat buyer for state supported living centers and state hospitals. County governments and school districts also procure under the code, typically bundling canned vegetables into comprehensive nutrition program food bids that cover dozens or hundreds of line items across protein, dairy, produce, and staple categories.

Procurement activity under the code concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with secondary activity in Oregon. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0016792v2 for supplemental food and consumables spanning 210 line items including canned vegetables for state hospitals and state supported living centers statewide (bids due March 19, 2026); the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes due June 19, 2026, with Oregon-fabricated and Oregon-resident bidder preferences of 5 percent each; Ben Hill County Schools' comprehensive food bid for fresh, frozen, and canned produce for four school locations (bids due June 15, 2026); and Burke County Public Schools' grocery procurement covering nearly 400 line items including canned vegetables for five schools (bids due June 5, 2026). Canned vegetables consistently appear as single-line or multi-item requirements within institutional food service contracts, with pricing evaluated per unit or case, delivery required F.O.B. Destination within 7 to 30 days of order receipt, and compliance with USDA grade standards (typically Grade B or better) and FDA labeling requirements.
