UNSPSC 50362513: Canned or jarred larian cherries

The variety of cherries known as larian cherries that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50362513 Canned or jarred lariam cherries, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual goods state and local governments are buying under this designation. Recent opportunities posted under the code show school districts, state correctional and health agencies, and municipal school nutrition programs soliciting canned and jarred fruit products—primarily applesauce, mixed fruits, and produce items—as components of broader food service and child nutrition procurements. The code appears to be a misfiled or legacy tag; the sourced opportunities involve general canned fruit supply rather than any lariam cherry–specific demand. State and local issuing bodies using related food commodity codes include Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Dallas Independent School District, Austin Independent School District, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Hancock County Board of Education, among others. Work ranges from blanket food service supply agreements covering 100+ line items to targeted procurements for specific product categories such as fresh produce, dried fruit, or canned goods, typically delivered to central warehouses or distributed across multiple school or facility locations. Requirements commonly include USDA compliance (Buy American provisions requiring 51% domestic content for processed items), firm fixed pricing for contract periods, FOB destination delivery with prepaid freight, general liability insurance of $1 million to $2 million per occurrence, and compliance with federal nutrition standards and food safety certifications.

Recent opportunities span multiple states with concentration in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia. Representative solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 (July 31, 2026, response deadline) for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at a historical price of $21.84 per case; Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 (July 16, 2026) for dried fruit bars and apple crisps; Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products at $1.5 million historical annual value; and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 (April 27, 2026) for a Master Grocery K-12 contract serving 45 schools with firm fixed pricing and weekly deliveries. The code shows active, regular procurement across state departments, county and municipal school districts, and corrections agencies, with contract values typically in the range of several hundred thousand to $9 million annually depending on school district size and scope.
