UNSPSC 50371809: Canned or jarred organic aurea barberries

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

UNSPSC 50371809 Canned or jarred organic aurea barberries, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope; state and local procurement under this code does not reflect specialized organic barberry sourcing but instead captures broad food service and child nutrition contracting for school districts, state agencies, and institutional facilities. The source contains no recent opportunities actually soliciting canned or jarred barberries, organic or otherwise. Instead, the opportunities tagged under this code predominantly seek canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, eggs, and general grocery items—a mismatch between the code's name and what is actually being procured. The issuing bodies include state correctional departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), state health and human services commissions (Texas HHSC, Illinois CPO), school districts (Austin ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Savannah-Chatham County, Hancock County, Douglas County, Fairfax County, Liberty County, Dallas ISD), and special facilities (HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center). Geographic activity spans Oregon, Texas, Illinois, Georgia, Virginia, and Missouri.

Recent opportunities actually solicited under this code include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce (4,760 cases, bids due July 31, 2026, with a historical price of $21.84 per case), Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps for food service (proposals due July 16, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education IFB SN002-2027 for fresh produce across 200+ line items including apples, berries, and citrus (bids due June 26, 2026, with delivery to three school locations), and Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts in Georgia with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two (proposals due March 4, 2026). The code's assignment to these opportunities appears administrative or systemic rather than substantive—the actual procurement focus is mainstream school food service and institutional food supply, not specialty organic items. Firms pursuing activity under this code should verify alignment with issuing bodies' actual commodity needs rather than assume barberry-specific procurement intent.
