UNSPSC 50476506: Canned or jarred organic snowball turnips

The variety of organic turnips known as organic snowball turnips that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50476506 Canned or jarred organic snowball turnips is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement activity focused on institutional food service, though recent solicitations show no opportunities actually seeking organic snowball turnips by name. Instead, the recent opportunities tagged under this code span broad food procurement for state agencies, school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and health and human services operations — requesting canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, and mixed grocery items rather than the specific commodity the code nominates. The issuing bodies are primarily school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Ben Hill County Schools, Douglas County School System), state departments of corrections and health services (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home), and single institutional purchasers (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Georgia state operations). The frequent appearance of K-12 school nutrition programs reflects the largest concentration of recent activity under this code tier.

Geographic activity spans multiple regions with heavy representation from Georgia (Ben Hill County, Burke County, Muscogee County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County), Texas (state health and human services, criminal justice), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Illinois (Veterans Home), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools). Representative recent procurements include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a due date of July 13, 2026, the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes (approximately 7,616 cases) due June 19, 2026, Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 across 45 elementary, middle, and high schools with responses due April 27, 2026, and the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across Georgia with a response deadline of March 4, 2026. The code shows consistent recent activity in food service supply but with a significant mismatch between the nominal commodity (organic snowball turnips) and what state and local governments are actually buying (mainstream canned goods, fresh produce, eggs, and comprehensive grocery lines for institutional feeding operations).
