UNSPSC 50365700: Canned or jarred plucots

The type of fruit known as plucots that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50365700 Canned or jarred plucots is a Class code that state and local governments procure primarily as part of broader food-service commodity purchasing for institutional meal programs rather than as a standalone item; the recent opportunities block shows this code applied to canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, and fresh produce contracts that fall outside the plucots scope, indicating the code sees little directly relevant activity in the sample. School districts, state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies, and municipal boards of education dominate the issuing-body mix, with school nutrition programs appearing most frequently. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S-29100-00017453 on July 10, 2026, requesting 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at a historical price of $21.84 per case with bids due July 31, 2026, and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission procured supplemental food and consumables including canned goods statewide under IFB HHS0016792 with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years; neither solicitation names plucots specifically.

Geographic spread centers on Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Missouri, with secondary activity in Connecticut, Illinois, and other states. The recent-opportunities sample shows school districts and state agencies in Georgia (Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Muscogee County School District, Douglas County School System), Texas (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, HHSC, TDCJ), Oregon (ODOC), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District), Connecticut (City of Bridgeport), and Illinois (State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office) all procuring food products under broader commodity codes. The code itself shows minimal direct relevance to the opportunities listed; state and local procurement activity in this tier focuses on applesauce, produce, proteins, and prepared entrees rather than canned plucots. If pursuing under this code, align messaging to institutional food service and meal-program supply chains rather than specialty fruit products.
