UNSPSC 50476417 Canned or jarred organic roma VF tomatoes (Commodity) describes shelf-stable canned tomato products that state and local governments buy principally for institutional food service — cafeterias at state-supported living centers, schools, correctional facilities, and senior services programs. The Oregon Department of Corrections procured approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (USDA Grade B or better, sliced, diced, stewed, halves, or whole) in June 2026, with sodium not to exceed 240 mg per 100 grams and a minimum 12-month shelf life at delivery; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and related state agencies solicit canned tomatoes as part of larger consumables food bundles serving multiple state facilities statewide. Issuing bodies include state health and human services agencies, state correctional departments, school districts, and county senior services programs. The code sees activity across Texas, Oregon, Georgia, and Illinois, with Texas — particularly the Health and Human Services Commission serving state-supported living centers and hospitals — and Oregon (Department of Corrections) as the most active recent buyers.

The Oregon Department of Corrections IFB S2910000017145 (posted June 5, 2026, due June 19, 2026) solicited 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes at $13.75 per case in the prior year (February 2026 award to California Healthy Harvest), with delivery to the Central Distribution Center in Salem across eight full truck loads; Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-resident bidders received a 5 percent preference. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission included canned tomatoes within broader food and consumables procurements such as IFB HHS0017449 for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026) and IFB HHS0016792V2 for supplemental food across state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (210 line items, maximum potential value $4.5 million over three years, posted May 19, 2026, bid deadline March 19, 2026). School districts in Georgia — Ben Hill County Schools (IFB #26271, due June 15, 2026) and Burke County Public Schools (posted May 11, 2026, due June 5, 2026) — included canned vegetables and tomatoes within comprehensive school nutrition food bids spanning nearly 400 line items. All procurements require FOB Destination delivery, FDA/USDA compliance, and firm fixed pricing; many impose Buy American requirements or state-level preferences.
