UNSPSC 50364909: Canned or jarred august red nectarines

The variety of nectarines known as august red nectarines that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50364909 Canned or jarred august red nectarines is a Commodity code that describes preserved fruit products state and local governments buy primarily for institutional food service—correctional facilities, health and human services agencies, school districts, and state hospitals. Recent opportunities show this code applied broadly to canned fruit procurement (applesauce, pears, mixed canned goods) rather than nectarines specifically, reflecting how agencies use higher-level commodity codes to aggregate related preserved fruit purchases. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code span the full range of public institutions: state corrections departments, state health and human services commissions, school nutrition programs, and county boards of education. Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and multiple school districts emerge as repeat buyers from the recent record. The scope of work covers canned or jarred fruit meeting USDA commodity specifications, packed in juice, water, or light syrup, with firm shelf-life requirements and FOB destination or FOB delivery pricing that bundles transportation and fuel charges into per-unit costs. Products typically arrive in cases or full truckloads (40,000-pound quantities), with specifications often allowing both sweetened and unsweetened varieties and smooth or chunky styles to accommodate institutional menu flexibility.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and Southwest, with Texas and Georgia school districts, Oregon corrections, and Texas health and human services facilities driving recent volume. Representative recent procurements include Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 (posted July 10, 2026, due July 31, 2026) seeking 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at a historical price of $21.84 per case with a 10 percent combined Oregon-goods and Oregon-vendor preference; Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026) requesting food and consumable products including canned goods for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with an estimated prior-period value of $1.5 million; and multiple school district produce and grocery solicitations from Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Connecticut spanning spring and early summer 2026. Institutional food service procurement under this code typically requires USDA compliance, general liability insurance ($1 million minimum per occurrence), delivery within 45–60 days of order, and firm pricing for 12-month contract periods with limited midterm adjustment rights tied to manufacturer price increases or CPI changes.
