UNSPSC 50365208: Canned or jarred sweet granadilla passion fruit

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

UNSPSC 50365208 Canned or jarred sweet granadilla passion fruit is a Commodity code that, in recent state and local practice, appears as a line item within much broader food-service procurement. None of the recent opportunities documented here solicit granadilla or passion fruit specifically; instead, the code appears tagged to general shelf-stable food, fresh produce, and consumable supplies solicitations where canned and jarred fruits are one component among dozens of line items. State and local governments acquire this product as part of institutional food service: school districts, corrections departments, health and human services facilities, senior services, and veterans homes purchase it alongside proteins, dairy, grains, and other produce to meet meal requirements. The issuing bodies include state-level purchasing offices (Texas HHSC, Texas Comptroller, State of Illinois, State of Georgia, Oregon Department of Corrections), county boards of education (Hancock County, Gwinnett County), independent school districts (Austin ISD), municipal boards of education (Bridgeport, Connecticut), and state-supported residential facilities. No vendor shows up in more than one opportunity, and no issuing body appears as a repeat solicitor of this exact code.

Geographic activity spans the South (Georgia, Texas, Florida implicitly via the HHSC statewide scope), Midwest (Illinois), Pacific Northwest (Oregon), and Northeast (Connecticut), with Texas, Illinois, and Oregon appearing most frequently in the recent record. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requesting informal written quotes for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (including canned proteins and vegetables) due October 19, 2026, under IWQ 140229; the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing an ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (a closely related canned fruit product) due July 31, 2026; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission requesting bids on 210 line items of food and consumable products for state hospitals and supported living centers, with responses due March 19, 2026, under IFB HHS0016792v2, representing a maximum potential contract value of $4.5 million over three years. The code shows activity but lacks recent opportunities targeting granadilla or passion fruit as standalone line items; pursuit depends on vendor capacity to respond to broader food-service RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs where this commodity sits as one small line among many.
