UNSPSC 50373441: Canned or jarred organic galaxy seedless grapes

The variety of organic table grapes known as organic galaxy seedless grapes that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50373441 Canned or jarred organic galaxy seedless grapes (Commodity) represents a narrow product line within state and local food procurement, though recent solicitations reveal that this code is being applied to a much broader basket of shelf-stable and fresh food commodities rather than exclusively organic canned grapes. State and local governments use this code to buy food service supplies for correctional facilities, veterans' homes, state supported living centers, school districts, county senior services programs, and municipal school nutrition centers. The actual work being solicited spans canned proteins and vegetables, fresh produce (apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, citrus, specialty fruits), dried fruit products, dairy, proteins, frozen entrees, and general cafeteria staples — well beyond the code's nominal scope. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and health services, county boards of education and commissioners' offices, independent school districts, and municipal purchasing divisions. The mix reflects the typical state and local food-service landscape: correctional and detention facilities drive the largest volumes, followed by institutional nutrition operations at supported living centers, veterans' homes, and school districts.

Activity concentrates in the South and Southwest — Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County Board of Education, State of Georgia), Texas (Austin ISD, HHSC El Paso facility, TDCJ statewide), and Oregon (ODOC statewide) — with secondary activity in Illinois (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy) and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport). Representative recent solicitations include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 (informal written quotes, due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins, vegetables, and staples to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center; Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000017453 (closed July 31, 2026) for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce to the Central Distribution Center in Salem with five truckload deliveries at 45-day intervals and a historical price of $21.84 per case; Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 (closed July 16, 2026) for dried fruit bars and apple crisps delivered to the district's central warehouse; Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products to El Paso State Supported Living Center with a prior-period value of $1.5 million and a contract term through August 31, 2027 plus one renewal option; and Texas TDCJ IFB 304T-26-300CF (extended to May 4, 2026) for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food to six TDCJ distribution points statewide with a contract term through August 31, 2027 plus two optional one-year renewals. Delivery is typically FOB Destination with advance scheduling required, and awards usually go to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder or, in some cases, to the bidder offering best value. Vendors commonly must carry general commercial liability insurance ($500,000 to $2 million per occurrence), comply with USDA and FDA standards, provide references and performance certifications, and meet federal and state worker verification and prevailing wage requirements where applicable.
