UNSPSC 50365718 Canned or jarred flavorosa plucot is a Commodity code that encompasses shelf-stable canned and jarred fruit products procured by state and local food-service operations, including corrections facilities, veterans' homes, school districts, and senior services centers.

The issuing bodies span state departments of corrections, state veterans' homes, state health and human services agencies, county boards of education, county senior services, school districts, and municipal boards of education. The Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Department of Criminal Justice are repeat solicitors for canned applesauce; the State of Illinois repeatedly procures weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy; and school districts and senior services centers source canned fruits as part of multi-item nutrition or food-service contracts.
