UNSPSC 50373456: Canned or jarred organic muscadine grapes

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

UNSPSC 50373456, Canned or jarred organic muscadine grapes, is a Commodity code that in practice covers canned and jarred shelf-stable fruit products—including applesauce, dried fruit items, and other processed fruit—purchased by state departments, county governments, school districts, and specialized state institutions for food service and nutritional programs. State and local procurement offices soliciting under this code are acquiring products to supply correctional facilities, veterans' homes, state-supported living centers, senior services, school nutrition programs, and board of education cafeterias. The work consists of firm-priced, specification-driven procurement of shelf-stable fruit products meeting USDA commodity or federal food standards, delivered FOB destination to centralized distribution points or individual facility locations, typically on a quarterly or annual renewal cycle with pricing held firm across the contract term or adjusted only at renewal periods.

Recent activity shows issuing bodies across multiple states and jurisdictions. The Oregon Department of Corrections has posted two separate ITBs for canned applesauce (May 2026 and July 2026), with historical pricing around $21.83 per case and delivery to the Central Distribution Center in Salem; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office has solicited weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy on both brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications (June and August 2026); Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal quotes for 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items including canned products (October 2026, due October 19); and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission has issued multiple IFBs for supplemental food and consumables statewide (May 2026, with a maximum potential value of $4,500,000 over three years). Austin Independent School District posted an RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (June 2026), and Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia solicited fresh produce for the 2026–27 school year (June 2026). The geographic concentration appears strongest in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with activity also present in the Midwest (Illinois) and Connecticut. Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content appear frequently in school nutrition and state health service procurements.
