UNSPSC 50476838: Canned or jarred organic lo bok

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

UNSPSC 50476838 Canned or jarred organic lo bok is a Commodity code with no recent state and local procurement activity matching the code's narrow scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code encompass broad food service procurement—including canned tomatoes, fresh produce, weekly food orders, and comprehensive grocery supply contracts—but do not specifically target organic lo bok, a specialized Asian leafy green product. The mismatch suggests the code is rarely used or misapplied in state and local tagging, and business development professionals should not expect significant volume under this specific commodity designation.

The opportunities that do reference the code are solicited by school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI and Burke County in Missouri, Liberty County and Muscogee County in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia, Ben Hill County in Georgia), state correctional and health agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State of Illinois Veterans Home), and county school nutrition programs across Georgia and Missouri. Activity concentrates in the Southeast (Georgia, North Carolina) and Upper Midwest (Missouri, Illinois), with secondary activity in the Pacific Northwest (Oregon) and Texas. Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB for canned tomatoes (S2910000016405, ITB, bid due June 19, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables for state supported living centers (HHS0017449, IFB, proposals due July 13, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' sealed-bid Master Grocery K-12 contract covering 45 schools with weekly deliveries (IFB 2000004323, bid due April 27, 2026, later extended). Food service procurement in this space prioritizes USDA compliance, Buy American requirements where applicable, firm fixed pricing, strict nutritional standards, and multi-site delivery logistics, but organic lo bok itself does not appear in the line-item detail provided in any recent solicitation.
