UNSPSC 50365904: Canned or jarred nana pomegranates

The variety of pomegranates known as nana pomegranates that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50365904 Canned or jarred nana pomegranates, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual procurement activity appearing in recent state and local solicitations tagged to it. The recent-opportunities block contains no canned pomegranate bids; instead, it shows food service procurement spanning canned applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit bars, and broad commodity food supply for schools, corrections facilities, senior services, and state-supported living centers across multiple states. The code's nominal scope—preserved pomegranates—appears unrelated to the work actually being solicited. State and local procurement offices have tagged general food-service and food-commodity solicitations to this code, suggesting either a tagging error in the source data or use of the code as a catch-all for preserved fruit items when more specific commodity codes are unavailable or inapplicable.

The issuing bodies are diverse, spanning county boards of education (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Austin Independent School District in Texas), state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), county social services (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), and city procurement offices (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut). Recent activity is concentrated in Georgia, Texas, Illinois, Oregon, and Connecticut, with opportunities posted between May and October 2026. Representative recent solicitations include Gwinnett County's informal written quote for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026 (IFB), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026 (ITB with 5% Oregon-goods and resident-bidder preferences), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers with a March 19, 2026 response deadline and a three-year contract value ceiling of $4.5 million. Buy American and domestic-content requirements appear in school district and state corrections solicitations; most awards are made to lowest responsive and responsible bidders on fixed unit pricing.
