UNSPSC 50371558: Canned or jarred organic northern spy apples

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

UNSPSC 50371558 Canned or jarred organic northern spy apples is a Commodity code that describes shelf-stable fruit products state and local governments procure for institutional food service—school cafeterias, corrections facilities, senior centers, and state hospitals. Recent solicitations show the actual buying activity spans a broader range of canned fruit and processed fruit products than the code name alone suggests, including canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, and mixed commodity food orders that include canned or jarred fruit among dozens of line items. Issuing bodies include county boards of education, state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies, municipal school districts, county social services departments, and state-level procurement offices acting on behalf of corrections and public health entities. The mix leans toward education and public safety—school nutrition programs and institutional food service for corrections and state hospitals dominate the recent record.
