UNSPSC 50372207: Canned or jarred organic legacy blueberries

The variety of organic blueberries known as organic legacy blueberries that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50372207 Canned or jarred organic legacy blueberries (Commodity) describes shelf-stable preserved fruit that state and local governments procure primarily through food service solicitations for institutional dining, nutrition programs, and supply to correctional facilities, state-supported living centers, and schools. The code sees active but narrow recent solicitation activity; the recent opportunities block shows no direct blueberry-specific procurements tagged to this code. Instead, state and local buyers soliciting under related food commodity codes are purchasing canned applesauce, fresh produce, and mixed food items for similar end uses. When blueberries do appear in state and local food service RFPs and IFBs, they surface as fresh fruit or as components within broader produce or commodity line-item lists rather than as canned or jarred legacy variants. The issuing bodies purchasing under adjacent food commodity codes span county boards of education, state corrections departments, state veterans' homes, state health and human services agencies, city school nutrition centers, and county departments of community services.

Geographic activity in the wider food commodity procurement space centers on Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County, and State of Georgia), Illinois (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), Oregon (Oregon Department of Corrections), Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, Austin ISD), and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport). Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000016975 for canned fruit applesauce (bids due June 2, 2026), the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center (proposals due July 13, 2026), and Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce including multiple apple varieties and berries (bids due June 26, 2026). Buy American requirements, domestic-content preferences, and USDA commodity compliance appear consistently across these solicitations. The code itself shows little direct recent solicitation volume; vendors pursuing canned or jarred organic legacy blueberries should monitor broader institutional food service RFPs and position product under mixed fruit or specialty produce line items where specification flexibility permits.
