UNSPSC 50364923: Canned or jarred garden delight nectarines

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

UNSPSC 50364923 Canned or jarred garden delight nectarines (Commodity) covers canned fruit products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service, though recent solicitations tagged under this code show a much broader pattern of fresh produce, prepared foods, and general grocery procurement across school nutrition programs, institutional facilities, and correctional systems. The issuing bodies span school districts of varying sizes (from mid-sized districts like Hancock County and Austin ISD to large systems like Dallas ISD and Fairfax County), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), state health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC, Illinois CPO), and county school systems. School districts dominate the activity, often soliciting grocery and produce contracts on annual cycles tied to the July–June fiscal year, with responses structured through competitive bidding (IFB, RFP) or cooperative purchasing vehicles. State institutional buyers—corrections, mental health, and residential facilities—source canned and fresh goods separately, while school nutrition programs typically bundle fresh produce, canned goods, proteins, dairy, and prepared items into single multi-line-item procurements.

Activity clusters in the Southeast (Georgia appears in at least five recent opportunities including Hancock County, Muscogee County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham, and Douglas County systems) and Texas (multiple school districts, HHSC, TDCJ). Oregon, Connecticut, Missouri, and Illinois also show recent activity. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 (Fruit Applesauce, due July 31, 2026) seeking 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with a 10 percent combined Oregon goods and resident bidder preference; Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 (Dried Fruit Bars and Apple Crisps, due July 16, 2026); and the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017449 (Food and Consumable Products for El Paso State Supported Living Center, due July 13, 2026) covering multiple NIGP food and supply classes with a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million. School districts dominate with standing procurements for produce and grocery items on firm-fixed or cost-plus-index pricing models, typically requiring weekly delivery to multiple school sites, Buy American compliance, and USDA commodity specification adherence. Canned fruit and prepared foods are commonly embedded in larger food service bundles rather than solicited as standalone line items.
