UNSPSC 50371535: Canned or jarred organic granny smith apples

The variety of organic apples known as organic granny smith apples that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50371535 Canned or jarred organic granny smith apples is a Commodity code that encompasses shelf-stable canned and jarred apple products procured by state and local jurisdictions for institutional food service, including school districts, corrections departments, health and human services agencies, and county social services programs. The code sees activity across a mix of issuing bodies: state departments of corrections and health services, state health systems, county boards of education and social services, city boards of education, and state-level facilities serving vulnerable populations. Recent solicitations show apple products appearing both as line items within broader food and consumables RFPs and as stand-alone procurements, with vendors required to meet USDA commodity specifications, deliver on FOB Destination terms with transportation prepaid, maintain minimum shelf life (typically one year), and comply with Buy American provisions where applicable.

Recent procurement activity spans multiple states and issuing bodies with no single jurisdiction dominating. The Oregon Department of Corrections has issued at least two separate ITBs for canned applesauce (S2910000017453, due July 31, 2026, and S2910000016975, due June 2, 2026), each covering approximately 1,900 to 4,760 cases delivered in multiple truckloads to Salem at historical pricing near $21.84 per case, with a 10 percent cumulative preference available for Oregon-fabricated and Oregon-headquartered vendors. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited supplemental food and consumables (HHS0016792V2) for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide with a three-year potential value of $4.5 million and an IFB due date of March 19, 2026. The Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia solicited fresh produce including multiple apple varieties for the 2026–27 school year (PE67080NONST2027000000013, bids due June 26, 2026) with over 200 line items and a one-year contract term. Additional activity appears in broader food commodities solicitations from Gwinnett County in Georgia, the City of Bridgeport in Connecticut, the State of Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, all posting between May and October 2026.
