UNSPSC 50372103: Canned or jarred organic mountain bilberries

The variety of organic billberries known as organic mountain bilberries that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50372103 Canned or jarred organic mountain bilberries, a Commodity code, sees negligible recent activity directly aligned with its narrow scope — the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for bilberries, organic or otherwise. State and local governments procuring canned or jarred fruit under this code tier are instead actively buying mainstream processed fruits such as applesauce, pears, and mixed canned goods as components of broader food-service contracts. The code's nominal product line does not match the work state and local jurisdictions are actually purchasing today. Canned fruit procurement at the state and local level focuses on high-volume commodity supply for institutional food service — corrections facilities, state hospitals, school nutrition programs, and supportive living centers — where generic canned applesauce, mixed fruit, and shelf-stable produce dominate, not specialty organic items like mountain bilberries.

The issuing bodies soliciting canned or jarred fruit products include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office), school districts (Austin Independent School District, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Hancock County Board of Education, multiple Georgia and Texas districts), and municipal education departments (City of Bridgeport Board of Education). Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 posted July 10, 2026, for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026, under firm fixed pricing with 10 percent Oregon preference; and Dallas Independent School District's RFP JC250079 issued February 22, 2026, for various food products (including canned items) delivered to its Maria Luna Warehouse with a due date of April 2, 2026. Geographic activity concentrates in Oregon, Texas, Georgia, and the Northeast, with scattered school district participation across multiple states. The code shows active procurement volume in institutional food service but little to no demand for the specific organic bilberry product the code nominates.
