UNSPSC 50364918: Canned or jarred fantasia nectarines

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

UNSPSC 50364918 Canned or jarred fantasia nectarines, a Commodity code, covers shelf-stable canned stone fruit that state and local government food-service operations procure for institutional meal programs, senior services, correctional facilities, and school nutrition. The solicitations grounding this code reveal that state and local buyers source canned fruit — applesauce, peaches, nectarines, and mixed fruits — as part of broader food-commodity acquisitions rather than as standalone line items; the code sits within larger institutional food-service RFQs, IFBs, and RFPs that bundle proteins, vegetables, dairy, and fruit products under consolidated purchasing. Issuing bodies include county boards of education, state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies, county boards of commissioners managing senior services, city school districts, and state veterans' homes. Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, Texas, and Connecticut appear across the recent opportunities. The work involves responding to detailed specifications emphasizing USDA compliance, minimum shelf-life requirements (typically one year), compliance with Buy American provisions where applicable, firm fixed pricing quoted per case or unit, FOB destination delivery to designated warehouses or distribution centers, and often brand-or-equal substitution flexibility.

Recent representative opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education (Sparta, Georgia) issuing IFB #SN002-2027 in June 2026 for fresh produce spanning multiple apple and berry varieties across 200 line items for the 2026–27 school year; the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing ITB S-29100-00017453 in July 2026 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce delivered in five full truckloads to Salem with historical pricing at $21.84 per case and 5% Oregon-goods and resident-bidder preferences applied; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing IFB HHS0017449 in June 2026 for food and consumable products to El Paso State Supported Living Center with a historical contract value of $1.5 million for the prior 12-month period and a contract term running September 1, 2026, through August 31, 2027, with renewal options through August 31, 2028. The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia) issued IWQ 140229 in October 2026 requesting informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables for senior services. State and local procurement under this code remains active across food-service institutional categories, with emphasis on volume purchasing, regulatory compliance, and competitive fixed pricing.
