UNSPSC 50361614: Canned or jarred earliman apricots

The variety of apricots known as earliman apricots that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50361614 Canned or jarred earliman apricots is a Commodity code that state and local governments procure primarily through school district food service programs and institutional facilities including corrections departments, health and human services agencies, and state-supported living centers. Recent solicitations show that purchasing bodies treat this code broadly within larger food service procurements, often bundling canned fruit products with applesauce, produce, dairy, proteins, and consumable supplies rather than purchasing apricots as standalone line items. The Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and multiple school districts across Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Texas are among the issuing bodies actively soliciting food service products under related commodity classifications, with purchasing driven primarily by institutional meal programs serving daily populations ranging from a few hundred to tens of thousands.

Geographic activity is concentrated in the South and Pacific Northwest, with recent solicitations posted from Oregon (Department of Corrections), Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, Dallas ISD, Austin ISD), Georgia (multiple school districts including Hancock County, Savannah-Chatham County, Liberty County, Douglas County, and Muscogee County), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District), and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport). Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 (posted July 10, 2026, bids due July 31, 2026) for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at a historical price of $21.84 per case with Oregon goods and vendor preferences totaling 10 percent; Dallas Independent School District RFP JC250079 (posted February 22, 2026, due April 2, 2026) for various food products including canned items for school nutrition services; and the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0016792 (posted February 26, 2026, original deadline February 16 extended to February 23, 2026) for 210 line items of supplemental food and consumables statewide with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years. None of the recent opportunities explicitly isolates earliman apricots as a solicited item; the code shows limited standalone market activity and appears to be subsumed within broader food service commodity and grocery procurements where bidders respond to generalized canned fruit specifications rather than specific apricot varieties.
