UNSPSC 50476825: Canned or jarred organic donqua

The type of organic vegetable known as organic donqua that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50476825 Canned or jarred organic donqua, a Commodity code, sees active state and local procurement focused on school nutrition programs and institutional food service for correctional facilities, hospitals, and supported living centers. The code captures canned and jarred vegetables and specialty preserved food products that state agencies, school districts, and health systems source regularly for meal programs. Recent solicitations show school districts and state departments of corrections and health services procuring canned tomatoes, tomato paste, and related canned goods as components of broader food service contracts. Issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), county and city school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Douglas County School System in Georgia, Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri), the Illinois Veterans Home, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. School nutrition programs dominate the procurement mix, with food service contracts for child nutrition accounting for the majority of recent activity.

Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia, with six school districts posting food procurement solicitations between January and June 2026, followed by Texas with multiple HHSC and TDCJ procurements, Oregon with Oregon Department of Corrections canned-goods solicitations, and Illinois with the Illinois Veterans Home quarterly food orders. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections solicitation S2910000016405 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026, IFB), with USDA Grade B or better specifications and sodium content limits; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), with prior-year contract value of $1.5 million and a one-year initial term through August 31, 2027; and the Ben Hill County Schools food bid PE61000NONST2027000000006 (due June 15, 2026, IFB) covering multiple food categories including canned items delivered to four school locations. The code shows consistent activity from institutional food service buyers using RFP, RFQ, and IFB notice types, with contract periods typically running July 1 through June 30 to align with school fiscal years, firm pricing requirements during initial terms, and periodic price adjustments tied to USDA pricing or the Consumer Price Index.
