UNSPSC 50361621: Canned or jarred goldrich apricots

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

UNSPSC 50361621 Canned or jarred goldrich apricots is a Commodity code that encompasses shelf-stable preserved fruit products purchased by state and local governments for food service operations. State and local buyers procure these items principally for institutional dining—school districts, corrections facilities, veterans' homes, senior services, and state health agencies—where they function as components of regular meal cycles, emergency food reserves, or supplemental nutrition programs. The code's real scope reflects the broader category of canned and jarred fruit products, as goldrich apricots appear within larger solicitations for mixed shelf-stable food inventories rather than as standalone line items. Issuing bodies span state departments (corrections, health services, veterans affairs), county boards of education, independent school districts, county governments, and municipal nutrition centers. State of Illinois regularly solicits weekly food orders for its veterans' homes; Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Department of Criminal Justice issue recurring procurement for institutional food service; and school districts in Georgia, Texas, and Connecticut conduct annual or seasonal food-service bids that typically bundle canned fruits with proteins, vegetables, and staples.
