UNSPSC 50365808: Canned or jarred beach plum

The variety of plums known as beach plum that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50365808 Canned or jarred beach plum is a Commodity code that sees negligible state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities block shows no canned beach plum solicitations; instead, state and local jurisdictions are sourcing canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and broad food service categories that fall under adjacent commodity codes. The mismatch between the code's specificity (beach plum, a regionally limited product) and the actual buying activity (institutional food service for corrections, schools, health services) suggests this code captures minimal procurement volume and does not reflect where business development effort would yield returns in the state and local market.

Activity across the available records clusters heavily in school nutrition and corrections food service, spanning school districts in Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, and Connecticut; state health and human services commissions in Texas, Illinois, and Georgia; and the Oregon Department of Corrections. These buyers source seasonal fresh produce, frozen and canned commodities, proteins, dairy, and packaged goods through ITBs, RFPs, and RFQs with response dates typically 30 to 60 days from posting. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables to state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (210 line items, $4.5 million estimated value over three years), and school district procurements such as Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 contract (multiple elementary and high schools, IFB due April 27, 2026). The code itself does not reflect this actual buying pattern and carries minimal relevance to state and local procurement pursuits.
