UNSPSC 50364504: Canned or jarred edwards mangoes

The variety of mangoes known as edwards mangoes that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50364504 Canned or jarred Edwards mangoes (Commodity) covers a narrow product category that state and local governments rarely procure directly; the recent solicitation activity under this code reveals a substantial mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual buying patterns. Of the thirteen opportunities posted since February 2026, none target canned or jarred mangoes specifically. Instead, the code captures incidental mango line items within much broader food service solicitations. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two ITBs for canned applesauce (ITB S-29100-00017453 due July 31, 2026, and S2910000016975 due June 2, 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited supplemental food and consumable products statewide for state hospitals and supported living centers (IFB HHS0016792 and HHS0016792V2). School districts dominate the recent opportunities: Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia posted a fresh produce IFB for the 2026-27 school year (due June 26, 2026) with mangos listed among over 200 produce line items; Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia solicited food products for school nutrition (due April 29, 2026); and multiple other school districts including Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia issued broad grocery and produce RFPs spanning dozens or hundreds of line items. Issuing bodies are predominantly K-12 school districts (nine of thirteen), with state corrections and health-services agencies accounting for the remainder. Mangoes appear only as subsidiary items within comprehensive food service contracts, not as standalone procurement targets.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and border states, particularly Georgia (six recent opportunities), Texas (five), Missouri (two), Oregon (two), and Virginia (one). The Hancock County Board of Education procurement explicitly lists mangos and papayas among specialty produce items for delivery to three school locations; Liberty County Board of Education and Muscogee County School District in Georgia both solicited fresh produce with mangos available as optional line items. No solicitation identifies canned or jarred mangoes as a primary focus. The code shows minimal decision-relevance for vendors specializing in processed mango products—pursuit would depend entirely on winning the broader food service contract and then securing the mango line item within it. Volume signals are absent from recent filings, as mango purchases are embedded in estimated annual spending ranging from $1.1 million to $9 million across entire food service contracts, with mango allocation unspecified. The code is worth monitoring for school district fresh-produce RFPs in Georgia and Texas, where mango demand appears most visible, but vendors should not anticipate direct opportunities for canned or jarred mangoes under this code at the commodity level.
