UNSPSC 50363485: Canned or jarred sugarthirteen grapes

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

UNSPSC 50363485 Canned or jarred sugared grapes (Commodity) represents a narrow food category that state and local governments acquire in modest quantities for institutional food service, though recent activity shows the code is being applied inconsistently to broader canned fruit and produce procurement. State and local solicitations actually tagged under this code or its immediate parent categories reflect diverse institutional buyers—state corrections departments, school districts, health and human services agencies, and municipal entities—acquiring canned and fresh produce staples for cafeterias, nutritional programs, and facility foodservice operations. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two recent solicitations for canned applesauce (ITB S-29100-00017453 in July 2026 and S2910000016081 in February 2026), each covering multiple truckloads of USDA-compliant canned fruit at historical pricing around $21.84 per case, with Buy American and Oregon-vendor preferences driving evaluation. Institutions are consolidating produce and food-product procurement into large multi-item bids rather than category-specific solicitations, which suggests the code itself may see limited direct activity relative to the broader grocery and produce families above it.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and Southwest, with school districts dominating the issuing-body mix: Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Liberty County Schools (Georgia), Muscogee County Schools (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood School District (Missouri), and multiple Texas independent school districts (Dallas, Austin, Rockwood) have posted food-service solicitations in the first half of 2026. Texas Health and Human Services Commission procured statewide supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and supported living centers (HHS0016792 and HHS0016792V2 with historical maximum values up to $4.5 million over three years). Few opportunities are narrowly scoped to canned grapes specifically; most modern food-service solicitations bundle dozens or hundreds of line items—fresh produce, frozen entrees, dairy, proteins, snacks, and supplies—into integrated RFPs and ITBs with firm pricing, Buy American compliance, and delivery to multiple sites. The code's nominal scope does not align closely with how state and local procurement actually divides food-service work today.
