UNSPSC 50365717: Canned or jarred flavorich plucot

The variety of plucots known as flavorich plucot that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50365717 Canned or jarred flavorich plucot is a Commodity code that encompasses shelf-stable canned and jarred fruit products, including applesauce, sourced by state agencies, county governments, school districts, and state-supported care facilities for food service operations. The code sees active procurement across institutional food service contexts—state corrections departments, state-supported living centers, veterans homes, county senior services, and school nutrition programs all solicit canned fruit under this classification. Recent opportunities show a mix of issuing bodies: Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Department of Criminal Justice procure in bulk for inmate meal service; Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy, Texas HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, and Gwinnett County Department of Community Services purchase for resident and client populations; Austin Independent School District and Hancock County Board of Education source for school nutrition; and City of Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center procures via city purchasing. Canned applesauce dominates the recent activity, with multiple jurisdictions specifying USDA 2011 commodity compliance, sweetened or unsweetened varieties, and shelf-life guarantees. One Oregon ITB and a Texas IFB both reference historical unit pricing (Oregon's at $21.84–$21.827 per case; Texas HHSC's supplemental food IFB valued at up to $4.5 million over three years across 210 line items), anchoring the typical price range.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Pacific Northwest, Texas, Illinois, Georgia, Connecticut, and the Southeast. Oregon Department of Corrections issued two ITBs for canned applesauce in May and July 2026 (approximately 1,904 cases and 4,760 cases, respectively, with June 2 and July 31 closing dates); Texas HHSC solicited supplemental food and consumables (210 line items, March 19, 2026 deadline, up to $4.5 million potential value) and food products for El Paso State Supported Living Center (July 13, 2026 deadline); Illinois Chief Procurement Office issued multiple weekly food-order RFPs for Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (brand-specific and brand-or-equal variants in June and August 2026). Gwinnett County, Georgia requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (October 19, 2026 deadline); Austin Independent School District issued an RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (July 16, 2026 deadline); and Hancock County Board of Education, Georgia and City of Bridgeport, Connecticut both solicited fresh produce with Buy American requirements (June 26, 2026 and June 26, 2026 deadlines, respectively). Texas Comptroller on behalf of TDCJ solicited cafeteria food products spanning 382 line items across five geographic areas (extended deadline of May 4, 2026). Oregon applies 5 percent state-goods and 5 percent resident-vendor preferences; Texas and Connecticut enforce Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed items; Georgia and Connecticut allow brand-or-equivalent substitutions. Pricing is typically firm-fixed over contract periods, with delivery FOB Destination and prepaid transportation standard across most opportunities.
