UNSPSC 50363604: Canned or jarred cabernet franc grapes

The variety of wine grapes known as cabernet franc grapes that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50363604 Canned or jarred cabernet franc grapes (Commodity) sees minimal relevant recent state and local activity; the code's nominal scope does not align with the solicitations posted under it. State and local governments are actually procuring canned fruit applesauce, dried fruit products, fresh produce, and broad food supply for schools and state facilities—not the specific wine-grape commodity the code nominally describes. Recent opportunities span Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, school districts in Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, and Connecticut, and the City of Bridgeport, with purchasing driven by school nutrition programs, institutional food service for state correctional and health facilities, and child nutrition operations. The issuing bodies are predominantly K-12 school districts and state departments overseeing institutional food service; school districts account for the majority of recent volume.

The geographic spread covers Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, and Connecticut, with school district procurement concentrated in the Southeast and Southwest. Representative recent opportunities include Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026) with Oregon goods and resident-business preferences totaling 10%, and Hancock County Board of Education IFB SN002-2027 for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items and multiple apple varieties with delivery to three school sites (due June 26, 2026). Additional significant activity includes Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0016792V2 for supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (210 line items, maximum contract value $4.5 million over three years, due March 19, 2026), and Dallas Independent School District RFP JC250079 for food products including spice and ice cream lots for the 2026-2027 school year (due April 2, 2026). The code appears to be a categorical classification mismatch rather than an accurate descriptor of the work being solicited.
