UNSPSC 50364623: Canned or jarred juan canary melons

The variety of melons known as juan canary melons that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50364623 Canned or jarred juan canary melons is a Commodity code with minimal recent activity directly matching its nominal scope; state and local governments acquiring canned fruit products under this code are instead procuring canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, and broader food supply categories for correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and state health services. The recent opportunities block shows one opportunity explicitly tagged to this code—Oregon Department of Corrections' July 2026 ITB for canned applesauce—alongside seven food procurement records tagged to it that address fresh produce, eggs, general grocery items, and food service distribution with no direct connection to melon products. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with multiple districts in Georgia, Missouri, Texas, and Virginia soliciting fresh produce, groceries, and food service supplies; state-level buyers include the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, and Georgia state procurement; and independent school districts and county school boards represent the bulk of recent activity. Geographic spread spans Texas (with multiple DISD, HHSC, and TDCJ procurements), Georgia (Hancock County, Douglas County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County school districts), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools), and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport), with school nutrition procurement concentrated in the South.

Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453, posted July 10, 2026, requesting 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026, with a 5 percent Oregon-goods preference and a 5 percent Oregon-bidder preference for a combined 10 percent total; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449, posted June 11, 2026, with a July 13 response deadline for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center (with historical value of $1.5 million) under fixed unit-rate pricing; Dallas Independent School District's RFP JC250079 for various food products due April 2, 2026, covering spice and ice cream lots and individual line items for the 2026-2027 school year; and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12, due April 27, 2026, requiring delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens across the district. Buy American and domestic-content requirements appear in most school-district procurements; prevailing wage, insurance, and federal compliance certifications (E-Verify, debarment, non-collusion) are standard across jurisdictions. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (canned melon products) and the actual procurements (applesauce, broad grocery and fresh-produce categories) suggests possible miscoding within state and local procurement systems rather than a robust market for canned melon products at the state and local level.
