UNSPSC 50362012: Canned or jarred olallie blackberries

The variety of blackberries known as olallie blackberries that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50362012 Canned or jarred olallie blackberries is a Commodity code that encompasses canned and jarred fruit products procured by state and local governments for institutional food service, school nutrition programs, and state facility operations — a scope significantly broader than the code's specific designation suggests, as recent solicitations tag dried fruit bars, fresh produce, applesauce, and multi-category food supply contracts under or near this classification. State and local issuing bodies accessing this code include departments of corrections, health and human services agencies, school districts (independent and county), and state purchasing offices. The work being solicited ranges from single-item commodity purchases (canned applesauce for institutional dining) to comprehensive multi-vendor food supply contracts supporting dozens of schools or state facilities. Recent representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 seeking 4,760 cases of canned applesauce delivered to Salem with bids due July 31, 2026, at $21.84 per case historically; Austin Independent School District's RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 covering food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with proposals due July 13, 2026, based on a prior-period value of $1.5 million.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas (multiple state agencies and school districts), Georgia (county school systems, Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two), and Oregon (Department of Corrections repeat buys in May and July 2026). School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), and Dallas Independent School District (Texas) posting substantial multi-line-item grocery and produce contracts. State-level agencies including the Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas HHSC, and Georgia Department of Education also solicit regularly under this code family. Buy American and domestic-preference policies are standard across recent solicitations, with most school districts requiring minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content in processed products and many states (Oregon, Texas) applying geographic or resident-bidder preferences. Pricing structures typically require firm fixed pricing for the contract term with limited midterm adjustments tied to manufacturer price increases or labor cost indices, FOB destination delivery with freight prepaid, and delivery to multiple school sites or state facilities on weekly or monthly schedules. Insurance minimums range from $500,000 to $2 million in commercial general liability depending on contract scope and issuing body.
