UNSPSC 50365360: Canned or jarred sugar giant peaches

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

UNSPSC 50365360 Canned or jarred sugar giant peaches (Commodity) spans shelf-stable canned and jarred fruit products that state and local governments procure primarily for institutional food service—schools, corrections facilities, senior services, and supported living centers. Recent solicitations frame the work as bulk procurement of branded or equivalent canned fruit items meeting USDA commodity specifications, delivered on FOB destination terms with firm unit pricing. Issuing bodies include county school districts, state corrections and health-services departments, and county social-services agencies sourcing food for nutrition programs, inmate meals, and congregate senior services. The code shows active procurement across multiple states with no single dominant buyer; Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut all posted relevant opportunities in the past five months.

Representative recent activity spans the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 (canned applesauce, 4,760 cases, bids due July 31, 2026, with a five percent Oregon-goods and Oregon-resident bidder preference totaling ten percent), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and proteins (quotes due October 19, 2026), and the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy under both brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications (proposals due August 24, 2026). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission also posted IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center with an estimated historical value of $1.5 million annually (proposals due July 13, 2026). All solicitations emphasize strict compliance with USDA grades, FDA/USDA standards, minimum shelf-life requirements, and prepaid FOB destination delivery; several impose Buy American content floors (51 percent domestic ingredients for processed products) under the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act. Award is typically made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder or, in best-value procurements, to the vendor offering best value on price, compliance, and past performance.
