UNSPSC 50365206: Canned or jarred maypops passion fruit

The variety of passion fruit known as maypops passion fruit that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50365206 Canned or jarred maypops passion fruit is a Commodity code that in state and local procurement practice encompasses canned and jarred preserved fruits—with recent solicitations showing school districts, state agencies, and county facilities buying canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and mixed food-service provisions under codes nominally linked to this commodity family. The code itself appears underutilized; the most recent opportunities posted under or near it reflect procurement of broader fruit and vegetable staples (applesauce, fresh produce, eggs, mixed grocery items) rather than specialty or niche fruit products like passion fruit. State and local buyers—Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia school districts, Illinois state agencies, and Connecticut municipalities—solicit fruit and produce items as components of larger food-service and nutrition contracts, typically bundled with proteins, dairy, and staple groceries rather than as standalone line items.

School districts dominate the issuing body mix, with recent activity concentrated in Georgia (Douglas County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County school systems), Texas (Dallas ISD, Austin ISD, HHSC), and Oregon (Department of Corrections), alongside scattered city and state purchases. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 (canned applesauce, 4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education IFB SN002-2027 (fresh produce including apples and berries, due June 26, 2026), and Douglas County School System RFP SN26-004 (fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia school districts, approximately $5.5 million annually, due March 4, 2026). Solicitations emphasize Buy American compliance, USDA commodity specifications, firm fixed pricing with transportation included, and weekly or as-needed delivery to central warehouses and individual school sites. The code shows little recent activity specifically for canned or jarred passion fruit; it is more commonly activated as part of mixed-fruit or general produce procurement where applesauce, canned fruit cocktail, and dried fruit bars appear alongside fresh inventory.
