UNSPSC 50363638: Canned or jarred petit verdot grapes

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

UNSPSC 50363638 Canned or jarred petit verdot grapes, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity; instead, purchasing agencies are sourcing canned and fresh fruit products across a broader spectrum of food commodities for institutional food service. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations specifically for petit verdot grapes or similar specialty preserved fruit products. Multiple state and local issuing bodies—school districts, corrections departments, health and human services agencies, and boards of education—are actively procuring food products for cafeteria, nutrition services, and institutional feeding programs, but their buys target staple items such as canned applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit bars, and bulk food commodities rather than specialty canned grape varieties.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual purchasing activity suggests that petit verdot grapes, if procured at all by state and local agencies, represent either a niche line item within broader food-supply contracts or a product category with minimal recent activity in the jurisdictions tracked by the source data. Recent representative opportunities—Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned fruit applesauce (due July 31, 2026), Austin Independent School District's RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026), Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide (updated due date February 23, 2026), and multiple school district fresh-produce and food-supply contracts across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Connecticut—document strong demand for institutional food products but reveal no purchasing activity tied to this code. Vendors pursuing contracts under this category should verify that their product offerings align with specific RFPs or cooperative purchasing vehicles rather than relying on the code classification alone to identify opportunities.
