UNSPSC 50365875: Canned or jarred sloe plum

The variety of plums known as sloe plum that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50365875 Canned or jarred sloe plum is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities block shows no solicitations for sloe plums or their canned/jarred equivalents. Instead, state and local buyers posting under or near this code are procuring canned and fresh fruit products far more broadly—canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce spanning dozens of apple varieties and other fruits, and comprehensive food-service commodities including eggs and proteins for school nutrition, institutional food service, and correctional facilities. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Austin ISD, Savannah-Chatham County, Rockwood R-VI, Hancock County Schools, Douglas County Schools, Liberty County Schools, Dallas ISD), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), and one municipal education entity (Bridgeport Board of Education). Repeat buyers include multiple Georgia school districts, Texas HHSC, and Oregon DOC, all pursuing annual or multi-year contracts for food supply.

Geographic activity spans the South (Georgia, Texas), Pacific Northwest (Oregon), Midwest (Illinois, Missouri), Northeast (Connecticut), and Mid-Atlantic (Virginia), with the heaviest concentration in Georgia school districts and Texas state agencies. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026, 5% Oregon-goods and 5% resident-bidder preferences totaling 10%), the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0016792 for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (210 line items, maximum value $4.5 million over three years), the Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 supply and delivery to 45 schools plus distribution kitchens (minimum 76 items, July 1, 2026 contract start), and Douglas County Schools RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across two Georgia areas (approximately $5.5 million annually combined). The code's mismatch with actual procurement signals that canned sloe plum is a niche commodity with no current state or local demand in the available dataset.
