UNSPSC 50371626: Canned or jarred organic jumbo cot apricots

The variety of organic apricots known as organic jumbo cot apricots that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50371626 Canned or jarred organic jumbo cot apricots is a Commodity code that frames a narrow product category, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it reflect a much broader food-procurement activity spanning shelf-stable proteins, canned vegetables, fresh produce, frozen specialty items, and other institutional food service commodities. The issuing bodies include county school boards, county senior services departments, state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies, city boards of education, and state-supported living centers—a mix of K–12 school nutrition programs, corrections food service, state institutional meal provisioning, and county social services. Most recent opportunities do not specifically call for organic jumbo apricots or even apricots at all; the code appears to serve as a broad institutional-food-procurement category that subsumes many product types. Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and the State of Illinois each issued multiple solicitations in this cycle, indicating concentrated repeat procurement across corrections and state health services.

Geographic activity clusters in the Southeast (Georgia, Georgia school districts, Illinois), Southwest (Texas), and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with secondary activity in Connecticut and New England. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026, Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026, with a historical award price of $21.84 per case, the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's brand-or-equal weekly food orders for Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy due August 24, 2026, and Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years and a March 19, 2026, response deadline. Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content appear in school district and corrections solicitations. Most institutional buyers require FOB destination delivery, firm fixed pricing, and compliance with USDA commodity or grade standards; many mandate general commercial liability insurance of $1 million or greater.
