UNSPSC 50365607: Canned or jarred red spanish pineapple

The variety of pineapples known as red spanish pineapple that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50365607 Canned or jarred red Spanish pineapple is a Commodity code under which state and local governments actually procure a broader range of canned fruits including applesauce, pears, and other shelf-stable fruit products for institutional food service operations, not pineapple specifically. Recent opportunities show school districts, state correctional and health agencies, and state-supported living centers using this code classification for canned fruit purchases bundled into larger food procurement bids. The Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Health and Human Services Commission are recent repeat buyers. Issuing bodies span state departments (corrections, health and human services), independent school districts across multiple states, county school systems, and special-purpose entities such as state-supported living centers. The activity reflects demand from facilities operating central food distribution and serving large residential or daily-meal populations requiring shelf-stable, bulk-packable fruit items meeting USDA commodity specifications.
