UNSPSC 50363430: Canned or jarred emerald seedless grapes

The variety of table grapes known as emerald seedless grapes that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50363430 Canned or jarred emerald seedless grapes (Commodity) does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually purchasing under this code. Recent solicitations tagged to this code center on canned and fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and state health services, with canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and mixed food items dominating the activity rather than grapes specifically. The issuing bodies span school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Austin ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Douglas County School System), state departments of corrections (Oregon DOC), state health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC, Georgia school boards), and municipal school nutrition programs (Dallas ISD, Bridgeport Board of Education). School districts account for the bulk of recent opportunities, with districts ranging from large urban systems (Dallas ISD, Fairfax County) to mid-size rural systems (Hancock County, Liberty County). State-level food service procurement for corrections and health facilities also appears regularly. The geographic spread includes Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia, with Texas and Georgia showing the highest recent activity.

Recent representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. PST under ITB S-29100-00017453) with a historical award price of $21.84 per case and 5 percent state-of-origin and resident-bidder preferences; Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract (IFB 2000004323, sealed bids due April 27, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern) spanning 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus seven distribution kitchens with delivery to schools and a central warehouse; Dallas Independent School District's RFP for various food products including spice and ice cream lots (RFP JC250079, due April 2, 2026) to supply the Maria Luna Food Service Facilities Warehouse; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (maximum potential value $4.5 million over three years including renewals, updated due date February 23, 2026). Buy American requirements appear in most school district procurements, with domestic content minimums of 51 percent for processed products. The code shows active procurement volume but significant misalignment between the stated commodity and actual purchasing patterns.
