UNSPSC 50371544: Canned or jarred organic jester apples

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

UNSPSC 50371544 Canned or jarred organic jester apples, a Commodity code, sees sparse recent activity, with state and local buyers instead soliciting canned applesauce, dried fruit products, and fresh produce through food service and nutrition programs. The recent opportunities block contains no direct solicitations for the product named in the code itself; one Oregon Department of Corrections ITB explicitly requests canned applesauce (not apples), and the remaining opportunities—from school districts, state health agencies, and correctional facilities across Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia—procure broader food categories including fresh produce, dried fruit bars, grocery items, and food supply contracts where canned fruit appears as one line item among hundreds. State and local issuing bodies purchasing under adjacent codes include school nutrition programs (Fairfax County Public Schools, Austin ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), state departments (Oregon DOC, Texas HHSC, Texas TDCJ, Illinois Chief Procurement Office), and special-purpose districts (GEC Buying Cooperative), with school districts appearing most frequently as repeat buyers of food products for student meal programs.

Representative recent opportunities illustrate the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement: the Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S-29100-00017453 on July 10, 2026 (due July 31, 2026) for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce delivered to Salem, Oregon, at $21.84 per case historical pricing under a 10% Oregon preference (5% for goods, 5% for resident bidders); the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 on June 11, 2026 (due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products including canned fruit as one category among many for the El Paso State Supported Living Center, with a historical prior-period value of $1.5 million; and Hancock County Board of Education solicited fresh produce under IFB #SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026 (due June 26, 2026), specifying multiple apple varieties (Ambrosia, Fuji, Gala, Granny Smith, Honey Crisp, Jazz) but no canned or jarred products. Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas, Connecticut), Pacific Northwest (Oregon), and Upper Midwest (Missouri, Virginia), though the code shows no targeted market for the specific commodity named.
