UNSPSC 50367014: Canned or jarred hawthorn

The type of fruit known as hawthorn that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50367014 Canned or jarred hawthorn is a Commodity code that in practice spans a broader range of canned and jarred fruit products than the code name alone suggests, with state and local governments—primarily corrections departments, school districts, and health and human services agencies—procuring canned applesauce, canned pears, and mixed canned fruit items for institutional food service. Recent solicitations show the code applied to procurements for cafeteria and nutrition programs rather than hawthorn specifically. The issuing bodies include state departments of corrections, school districts at multiple grade levels, state health and human services commissions, and county boards of education. Geographic activity concentrates in Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, and Connecticut, with the largest recent opportunities in Texas and Georgia.

Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 (posted July 10, 2026, due July 31, 2026) for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at a historical price of $21.84 per case, delivered to the Central Distribution Center in Salem in five truckloads; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products including canned items to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center and subordinate Department of State Health Services facilities statewide, with a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million and firm fixed unit pricing required. School districts from Hancock County, Georgia to Austin, Texas to Fairfax County, Virginia and Rockwood R-VI in Missouri have posted groceries and food procurement solicitations under broader commodity codes that encompass canned fruits as line items within larger food-service contracts. Delivery to institutional food service centers, compliance with USDA commodity specifications, FOB destination pricing with transportation prepaid, and firm fixed pricing for contract terms characterize the work.
