UNSPSC 50476603: Canned or jarred organic banana pink squash

The variety of organic winter squashes and winter pumpkins known as organic banana pink squash that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50476603 Canned or jarred organic banana pink squash (Commodity) does not match the state and local procurement activity currently posted under this code. The recent opportunities in the dataset show no solicitations for canned or jarred organic banana pink squash. Instead, state and local buyers are soliciting broad consumable food products for institutional cafeterias, food service programs, and state facilities—including fresh and frozen proteins, canned vegetables (tomatoes, beans, and mixed vegetables), dairy, grains, condiments, and food service supplies—under codes that appear to be misaligned with the specific commodity description. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia school districts, and other state and county nutrition programs are the principal issuing bodies, but their posted solicitations target staple shelf-stable and perishable foods in volume, not specialty organic squash products.

The geographic distribution of recent opportunities spans Texas (dominant, with HHSC and TDCJ solicitations), Georgia (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, State of Georgia), Oregon (ODOC canned tomato procurement), and Illinois (State of Illinois weekly food order). Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (response date October 23, 2026) covering prepared foods and food service supplies in 22 line items, the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes due June 19, 2026, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB 304T-26-300CF for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products with a response deadline of May 4, 2026, and Burke County Public Schools' school nutrition food bid due June 5, 2026. The code shows minimal to no active procurement volume for the specific product (canned or jarred organic banana pink squash) it nominally describes; business development professionals should verify that opportunities tagged to this code are actually seeking organic squash before investing pursuit resources.
