UNSPSC 50363110: Canned or jarred verdona figs

The variety of figs known as verdona figs that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50363110 Canned or jarred verdona figs (Commodity) shows minimal recent activity specific to the code's nominal scope; the single procurement opportunities in the data block reflect broader food service and child nutrition contracting in which canned fruits appear as commodity line items rather than targeted specialty purchases. State and local governments buy canned and jarred fruits under this Commodity code primarily as part of institutional food service supply—school districts, corrections facilities, health and human services agencies, and state-supported living centers source these items for meal preparation and food service operations. When canned fruits surface in recent solicitations, they are typically bundled within large multipurpose food service RFPs, RFQs, or ITBs that span dozens or hundreds of line items across proteins, vegetables, grains, and dairy, or they appear as ancillary items in master grocery contracts. The mix of issuing bodies is dominated by school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Austin Independent School District, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Douglas County School System), with secondary activity from state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office) and municipal purchasing (City of Bridgeport).

Geographic concentration is evident in the Southeast and Southwest, particularly Georgia (Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, and Douglas County school systems), Texas (Dallas Independent School District, Texas HHSC facilities, and Texas TDCJ), and the Pacific Northwest (Oregon Department of Corrections). Secondary activity appears in Connecticut, Missouri, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce (4,760 cases at $21.84 per case historical pricing, due July 31, 2026), the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at El Paso State Supported Living Center (approximately $1.5 million historical value, due July 13, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for a Master Grocery K-12 contract covering all departments with weekly deliveries to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026). Canned fruit procurement is consistently embedded within larger commodity food service awards; firms pursuing this Commodity code should monitor school nutrition and institutional food service solicitations rather than expect standalone verdona fig or canned fruit-specific opportunities.
