UNSPSC 50363640: Canned or jarred pinot blanc grapes

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

UNSPSC 50363640 Canned or jarred pinot blanc grapes, a Commodity code, does not align with the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code; instead, the recent solicitations reflect purchases of general canned and fresh food products for institutional food service, dominated by school nutrition programs and state facilities rather than specialty wine-grape products. State and local governments are buying canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, eggs, proteins, grains, and commodity food items through the code, primarily via school districts, state departments of corrections, state health and human services commissions, and regional school boards procuring meal components for lunch and breakfast programs, institutional cafeterias, and state-supported living centers. The issuing bodies are predominantly K-12 school districts—including Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Dallas Independent School District (Texas)—alongside state agencies such as the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, and the City of Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Services. These procurements occur across multiple notice types: ITBs dominate (Oregon DOC canned applesauce solicitations S2910000017453 due July 31, 2026, and S2910000016975 due June 2, 2026), RFPs are common for school districts (Austin Independent School District dried fruit bars RFP 27RFP004 due July 16, 2026, and Douglas County School System food-supply RFPs), and IFBs are used for large-scale commodity acquisitions (Texas HHSC HHS0017449 due July 13, 2026, and HHS0016792 supplemental food for state hospitals and supported living centers).

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and South—Georgia (Hancock County, Liberty County, Douglas County, Savannah-Chatham, Muscogee County), Texas (Dallas ISD, HHSC, TDCJ), and the Pacific Northwest (Oregon Department of Corrections)—with secondary activity in the Midwest (Missouri, Illinois) and Mid-Atlantic (Virginia, Connecticut). The Oregon Department of Corrections has posted multiple canned-applesauce solicitations within recent months, signaling repeat buying under this code. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at approximately $21.84 per case (historical price, awarded previously to Robbins Sales), with deliveries to the Central Distribution Center in Salem beginning within 60 days and a 10% combined state preference for Oregon goods and Oregon-based bidders; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a historical annual value of $1.5 million; and multiple school-district procurements such as the Douglas County School System RFP for fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two. Prices are firm fixed throughout contract periods, delivery is FOB destination with prepaid freight in most cases, and awards emphasize responsive-bidder, lowest-price selection with occasional line-item breakdowns and multiple-vendor awards.
