UNSPSC 50476413: Canned or jarred organic marvel striped traditional tomatoes

The variety of organic tomatoes known as organic marvel striped traditional tomatoes that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50476413 Canned or jarred organic marvel striped traditional tomatoes is a Commodity code covering shelf-stable canned and jarred tomato products purchased by state and local governments for food service operations at state-supported institutions, county services programs, school nutrition systems, and correctional facilities. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers procuring canned tomatoes as part of broader consumable food contracts for kitchens, cafeterias, and canteen operations, typically specified to USDA Grade B or better with particular attention to sodium content, shelf life, and code dating. The issuing bodies span state departments of corrections and health and human services, county commissioners' offices, and independent school districts across multiple states. Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, and Georgia school districts represent repeat activity under this code and related food service categories.

Recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' June 2026 bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (IFB S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026, with prior purchase at $13.75 per case from California Healthy Harvest in February 2026), specifying USDA Grade B or better, sliced, diced, stewed, halves, or whole formats, minimum 12 months shelf life, and sodium content not exceeding 240 mg per 100 grams, with Oregon-fabricated goods and resident bidders each receiving 5 percent preference; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food procurement (IFB HHS0016792V2, due March 19, 2026) covering 210 line items of fresh, frozen, dry, and refrigerated products including canned tomatoes for state hospitals and state supported living centers statewide, with an estimated three-year contract value of $4.5 million and deliveries required within seven days of order. Geographic concentration appears heaviest in Texas and Oregon, with additional activity in Georgia at the county and school district level. Response dates and pre-bid windows have closed on the opportunities listed; current market entry requires monitoring for new solicitations from state purchasing offices and school nutrition programs in the fourth quarter of 2026 and fiscal year 2027.
