UNSPSC 50371802: Canned or jarred organic chenault barberries

The variety of organic barberries known as organic chenault barberries that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50371802 Canned or jarred organic chenault barberries (Commodity) does not match the scope of recent state and local procurement activity under this code. The most recent opportunities soliciting under 50371802 are purchasing canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, supplemental food and consumable products, fresh produce, eggs, and various grocery items for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state-supported living centers—none of which are organic chenault barberries or specialty preserved fruits. State and local food service procurement under this code tier spans multiple issuing bodies: the Oregon Department of Corrections, school districts (Austin Independent School District in Texas, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Douglas County School System in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Dallas Independent School District in Texas), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases, and the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office. The actual work being solicited consists of bulk food supply contracts for institutional nutrition services, with standardized competitive bidding (IFB, RFQ, RFP) on established delivery routes and fixed-price firm agreements.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, Connecticut, Illinois, and Virginia. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026 (historical award to Robbins Sales at $21.84 per case); the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a prior-period value of $1.5 million, proposals due July 13, 2026; the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-003 for food supply and distribution services across 32 schools serving approximately 25,500 students with an estimated annual expenditure of $9 million, proposals due February 18, 2026; Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce across over 200 line items, bids due June 26, 2026; and Dallas Independent School District RFP JC250079 for various food products including spice and ice cream lots for the 2026-2027 school year, proposals due April 2, 2026. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (organic specialty preserved fruit) and the actual procurement activity (institutional bulk food supply for schools and corrections) signals this code sees little relevant activity aligned to its stated commodity definition.
