UNSPSC 50364302: Canned or jarred benlehr loquats

The variety of loquats known as benlehr loquats that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50364302 Canned or jarred benlehr loquats is a Commodity code that in practice covers shelf-stable preserved fruits and related canned food products procured by state and local food service operations, correctional facilities, schools, and state-supported living centers. The code shows minimal direct activity under its precise nominal scope; however, recent state and local solicitations tagged to this family systematically procure canned and preserved fruit products (applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps) alongside broader food and consumables lines. Issuing bodies span state departments of corrections, state health and human services commissions, county boards of education, municipal school districts, county departments of community services, and city boards of education. Georgia, Oregon, Texas, Illinois, and Connecticut show the most recent posting activity, with Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Health and Human Services Commission appearing multiple times as repeat buyers of canned fruit products for institutional food service.

Representative recent opportunities include Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (five truckloads of 40,000 pounds each) delivered to the Central Distribution Center in Salem, Oregon, with bids due July 31, 2026, and a historical price of $21.84 per case; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (both brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications) with proposals due August 24, 2026; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IFQ 140229 for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables, due October 19, 2026; and Austin Independent School District's RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps, due July 16, 2026. Procurement vehicles include ITBs, RFPs, and informal written quotes, with Buy American and domestic-content preferences appearing in school-district and state-agency solicitations.
