UNSPSC 50365304: Canned or jarred autumn flame peaches

The variety of peaches known as autumn flame peaches that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50365304 Canned or jarred autumn flame peaches (Commodity) covers shelf-stable preserved peaches that state and local food service operations—schools, corrections facilities, state-supported living centers, senior services, and county departments—procure as bulk food items for meal programs, institutional dining, and emergency food distributions. Recent opportunities show peaches appear alongside broader canned fruit and vegetable line items in multi-category food buys rather than as standalone specialty procurements; the code is typically bundled with applesauce, other canned proteins, dried fruit products, and fresh produce within larger institutional food service contracts. Issuing bodies span school districts (Austin ISD, Hancock County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education), state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas HHSC, Illinois Veterans Home), county social services (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), and local purchasing offices. The work involves competitive bids or informal quotes for case quantities delivered to central distribution hubs or institutional kitchens, with vendors quoting firm unit pricing, managing FOB destination delivery windows (typically 72 hours to 45 days), and meeting USDA commodity or FDA compliance standards.

Geographic activity centers on the South and West: Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County), Texas (HHSC El Paso facility, TDCJ statewide), Oregon (Department of Corrections Salem distribution center), Illinois (Veterans Home Quincy), Connecticut (Bridgeport), and a multi-state Texas correction system. Recent representative procurements include Gwinnett County's October 2026 IFQ for 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables (response deadline October 19, 2026); Oregon Department of Corrections' July 2026 ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at the Central Distribution Center in Salem, with historical pricing at $21.84 per case (bids closed July 31, 2026); and Texas HHSC's June 2026 IFB for food and consumable products to El Paso State Supported Living Center, covering 210+ line items with a prior-period value of $1.5 million (proposals due July 13, 2026). Vendors typically compete on unit cost per case or ounce, compliance with brand-or-equal substitution rules, insurance (commonly $1 million general liability), and delivery reliability; Oregon and Texas offer state or resident bidder preferences of 5 to 10 percent where applicable.
