UNSPSC 50361649: Canned or jarred tilton apricots

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

UNSPSC 50361649 Canned or jarred Tilton apricots is a Commodity code that receives minimal recent procurement activity under its literal designation; the available opportunities show state and local governments buying canned fruit products more broadly—applesauce, mixed fruits, and produce-based items for institutional food service—rather than Tilton apricots specifically. Oregon Department of Corrections solicited canned applesauce (ITB S-29100-00017453, due July 31, 2026) for approximately 4,760 cases delivered to its Central Distribution Center in Salem, with historical pricing around $21.84 per case and a 10 percent combined preference for Oregon-fabricated goods and Oregon-headquartered bidders. Texas Health and Human Services Commission and the Department of State Health Services issued IFB HHS0016792 and HHS0017449 for supplemental food and consumable products across state hospitals and supported living centers, encompassing frozen, refrigerated, and canned goods with estimated annual values reaching $1.5 million and up to $4.5 million over multi-year terms. School districts across Georgia, Missouri, Texas, Connecticut, and Virginia regularly procure canned and fresh fruit products as part of broader child nutrition food service contracts—Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Dallas Independent School District (Texas) all issued RFQs and IFBs between February and April 2026 for grocery and produce items, with annual quantities ranging from several hundred to over 20,000 cases and contract values often exceeding $1 million annually.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and Mid-South—Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Virginia dominate recent postings—with secondary activity in Oregon and Connecticut. Issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services, Texas Comptroller on behalf of state prisons), county school systems (Hancock County, Muscogee County, Douglas County, Liberty County in Georgia; Rockwood and Dallas in Texas and Missouri respectively), and municipal school districts (Austin Independent, Savannah-Chatham, Fairfax County). The code shows no incumbent vendors in the recent opportunities and no set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises in most school district procurements, though Texas and Oregon apply modest local-vendor preferences. Since the source offers no solicitations specifically tagged to Tilton apricots and recent activity predominantly targets applesauce and broader canned-fruit categories, the code as narrowly defined carries limited active demand; business development value lies in the broader canned and jarred fruit family and institutional food service contracts under adjacent commodity codes rather than this specific variety.
