UNSPSC 50365831: Canned or jarred friar plums

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

UNSPSC 50365831 Canned or jarred friar plums is a Commodity code, but recent state and local procurement activity shows no relevant solicitations specifically matching this product. The recent opportunities tagged to this code instead cover canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, eggs, and miscellaneous food service items — none of which are friar plums. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued an ITB on July 10, 2026, for canned applesauce (4,760 cases due July 31, 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited supplemental food and consumables including canned goods across 23 state facilities, but neither procurement specifies canned or jarred friar plums. Similarly, school districts in Oregon, Georgia, Missouri, Texas, and Connecticut have posted recent bids for fresh produce, grocery items, and food service supplies under this code, but friar plums do not appear as a line item in any of these solicitations.

This code shows significant recent activity in state and local food service procurement — driven by school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state health and human services agencies — but the activity centers on mainstream commodities (applesauce, fresh fruit, frozen entrees, dairy, proteins, and vegetables) rather than specialty or less common preserved fruit items. Issuing bodies include school districts of varying sizes (Fairfax County Public Schools, Austin ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Dallas ISD), state departments (Oregon DOC, Texas HHSC, Illinois CPO), and county boards of education (Hancock County, Douglas County, Muscogee County). Geographic spread spans Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Illinois. Without recent solicitations explicitly requesting canned or jarred friar plums, the code does not currently signal actionable procurement demand for this specific product line.
