UNSPSC 50364202: Canned or jarred key limes

A lime grown especially in the florida keys and adjacent area. Smaller than regular "persian" limes, the peel is thin, smooth and greenish-yellow when ripe. The flesh is also greenish-yellow and full of seeds. The interior is divided by 10 to 12 segments, It has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50364202 Canned or jarred key limes is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities block shows no solicitations specifically for canned or jarred key limes; instead, the tagged opportunities span canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, weekly food orders, fresh produce, and general food and consumable products for school nutrition programs, institutional food service, and corrections facilities. The mismatch between the code's narrow commodity definition and the broad food-service procurement activity it is tagged to suggests this code does not capture meaningful buying patterns in state and local markets, or it is being applied inconsistently by issuing bodies.

The issuing bodies represented in the recent opportunities—including the Oregon Department of Corrections, Austin Independent School District, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), City of Bridgeport Connecticut, school districts across Georgia and Missouri, Douglas County School System (Georgia), Dallas Independent School District (Texas), and Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri)—span corrections departments, school districts, state health and human services agencies, and municipal purchasing offices. Geographic spread includes Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce (4,760 cases, response date July 31, 2026), Austin Independent School District's RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (response date July 16, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (response date July 13, 2026), and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia school districts (response date March 4, 2026). The code shows activity, but little of it is demonstrably for canned or jarred key limes specifically.
