UNSPSC 50365873: Canned or jarred santa rosa plums

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

UNSPSC 50365873 Canned or jarred Santa Rosa plums, a Commodity code, shows minimal direct activity in recent state and local procurement, with the available opportunities revealing significant misalignment between the code's nominal scope and what is actually being solicited. The code description specifies a single preserved fruit item—canned or jarred Santa Rosa plums—yet the recent opportunities tagged under this code overwhelmingly reflect broader food service procurement across multiple product categories, including applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, meats, dairy, grains, and consumable supplies for correctional facilities, state hospitals, school nutrition programs, and human services centers. None of the representative solicitations explicitly name Santa Rosa plums or preserved plums as a line item or primary procurement focus, indicating either a cataloging error in the tagging system or use of this code as a placeholder for general canned fruit commodities without specificity to the Santa Rosa variety.

The issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Comptroller on behalf of the Department of Criminal Justice), county school systems (Hancock County, Douglas County, Muscogee County, Liberty County in Georgia; Rockwood R-VI in Missouri; Austin and Dallas independent school districts in Texas; Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia), municipalities (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut), and regional cooperatives (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts). Recent activity clusters heavily in the Southeast and Texas, with secondary presence in Oregon, Illinois, Missouri, and Connecticut. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, bids due July 31, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (estimated prior-period value $1.5 million, proposals due July 13, 2026), and Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce (over 200 line items, bids due June 26, 2026). Given the code-to-scope mismatch and absence of Santa Rosa plum–specific opportunities, vendors should verify whether their products align with broader canned-fruit or preserved-fruit categories before pursuing opportunities tagged under this code.
