UNSPSC 50363616: Canned or jarred french colombard grapes

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

UNSPSC 50363616 Canned or jarred french colombard grapes is a Commodity code that covers shelf-stable canned and jarred fruit products procured by state and local food service operations, correctional facilities, schools, and health and human services agencies. State and local solicitations under this code reflect purchasing of bulk canned fruit — including applesauce, mixed fruits, and related preserved fruit products — as commodity supply for institutional food programs rather than specialty or fresh-market fruit. The issuing bodies span state departments of corrections and health services, county boards of education and commissioners, city school districts, and state-supported living centers. Recent opportunities show school districts and corrections departments as repeat buyers, with the Oregon Department of Corrections posting multiple canned applesauce solicitations and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Department of Criminal Justice issuing broad multi-line-item food commodity procurements that include canned fruit as a component.

The code sees activity across multiple states, with recent solicitations from Oregon (two canned applesauce ITBs by ODOC), Texas (HHSC and TDCJ food service procurement), Georgia (state food supplies RFQ), Illinois (Illinois Veterans Home weekly food orders), Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education), and Georgia counties (Gwinnett County, Hancock County Schools). Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with a July 31, 2026 bid due date, awarded historically to Robbins Sales at $21.84 per case; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0016792v2 for supplemental food and consumable products statewide with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years, due March 19, 2026; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products IFB 304T26300CF spanning approximately 382 line items with a May 4, 2026 extended response date. Pricing is typically quoted per case or unit of measure on an FOB destination basis with transportation prepaid, and awards are made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder or on best-value criteria. Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed products apply in school district procurements under the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act.
