UNSPSC 50372521: Canned or jarred organic sonata cherries

The variety of organic cherries known as organic sonata cherries that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50372521 Canned or jarred organic sonata cherries (Commodity) does not reflect what state and local governments are actually buying under this code. Recent solicitations tagged with this code procure mainstream canned and fresh food products for institutional food service — canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, eggs, and multi-category food supplies — not organic sonata cherries. The issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), school districts (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Fairfax County Public Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education), and municipal entities (City of Bridgeport). School districts dominate the recent activity, reflecting the prevalence of child nutrition programs and institutional meal service procurement. Canned fruit, frozen and fresh produce, and proteins appear consistently across opportunities, with pricing structured as firm, fixed unit rates or case costs delivered FOB destination to central warehouses or individual school sites.

Geographic concentration appears in the Southeast and Texas, with recent opportunities from Georgia (Douglas County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham, Muscogee County school systems), Connecticut (Bridgeport), Texas (Dallas ISD, HHSC statewide, TDCJ statewide), Oregon (Department of Corrections), and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI). Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026), Dallas Independent School District RFP JC250079 for various food products including spices and ice cream (due April 2, 2026), Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts (due March 4, 2026 with estimated annual spend of $5.5 million), and Rockwood R-VI School District dual procurements for grocery items and Net Off Invoice products (both due April 29, 2026). Buy American or domestic-content requirements appear in most school district solicitations; state HHS procurements emphasize firm pricing with limited midterm adjustments tied to manufacturer increases. The code shows active, consistent demand but apparent taxonomic misalignment between the code name and the commodity actually being solicited.
