UNSPSC 50364002: Canned or jarred limequat kumquats

The variety of kumquats known as limequat kumquats that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50364002 Canned or jarred limequat kumquats, a Commodity code, does not align with the recent solicitations posted under this code. The opportunities recorded show state and local governments buying canned and fresh produce broadly—applesauce, fresh produce across dozens of varieties (apples, berries, citrus, vegetables), dried fruit bars, and mixed food and consumable products for correctional facilities, schools, senior services, and state-supported living centers. While the code nominally names a specific preserved citrus product, the actual procurement activity reflects large-volume shelf-stable and fresh food sourcing for institutional food service operations, driven by school nutrition programs, correctional and health-and-human-services departments, county nutrition centers, and municipal school boards. The issuing bodies are diverse: county boards of education, state departments (corrections, health and human services), independent school districts, municipal departments, and state procurement offices acting on behalf of multiple downstream agencies.

The geographic spread spans at least Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut, with the most recent activity concentrated in the South and Midwest through October 2026. Representative opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026 (IWQ 140229); the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's brand-specific and brand-or-equal weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy for the September–December quarter, proposals due August 24, 2026; the Oregon Department of Corrections' invitation to bid on approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce for delivery to its Central Distribution Center in Salem, bids due July 31, 2026 (ITB S-29100-00017453), with a historical award price of $21.84 per case; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's invitation for bid on supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (IFB HHS0016792v2), a 210-line-item procurement with a maximum three-year value of $4,500,000. Award criteria typically emphasize lowest responsive and responsible bidder, compliance with USDA and FDA standards, firm fixed pricing, and delivery to multiple institutional sites within specified timeframes.
