UNSPSC 50365309: Canned or jarred classic peaches

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

UNSPSC 50365309 Canned or jarred classic peaches is a Commodity code that state and local governments procure primarily as a food service staple for institutional feeding operations—correctional facilities, state health facilities, schools, and social services centers. Recent solicitations show that buying is not limited to whole canned peaches; the code captures a broader fresh and canned fruit category in actual procurement, with state and local agencies soliciting canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, and general food commodities under overlapping UNSPSC and NIGP classifications. The issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), county school systems (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Douglas County School System in Georgia, Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia), independent school districts (Austin ISD in Texas, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Dallas ISD in Texas), and municipal school systems (City of Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut). School nutrition programs drive the majority of recent activity, with multiple districts posting annual food contracts for the 2026–27 school year.

Geographic activity centers on the Southeast (Georgia school districts, one Connecticut school system), Texas (multiple state agencies and school districts), and scattered activity in Oregon, Virginia, Missouri, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026, with a combined 10% Oregon goods and resident bidder preference and a historical price of $21.84 per case; Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 for over 200 line items of fresh produce spanning multiple varieties due June 26, 2026, with a July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 contract term; and a Douglas County School System RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two. Pricing in school nutrition contracts typically runs firm fixed for the contract year with limited midterm adjustments tied to manufacturer price increases of 5% or greater, and most awards go to lowest responsive and responsible bidders meeting Buy American provisions (51% domestic content for processed products) and USDA compliance requirements.
