UNSPSC 50373468: Canned or jarred organic prima black seedless grapes

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

UNSPSC 50373468 Canned or jarred organic prima black seedless grapes is a Commodity code that in practice covers state and local procurement of shelf-stable canned and jarred fruit products—including applesauce, dried fruit bars, and other processed fruits—rather than the narrow organic grape specialty the code name suggests. Recent solicitations show that state and local governments use this code to tag food service procurement across institutional settings including correctional facilities, veterans homes, state supported living centers, school nutrition programs, and county senior services. The work involves purchasing standardized canned or preserved fruit items in bulk, typically with USDA commodity specifications compliance, FDA/USDA grade certification, and firm fixed pricing quoted per unit or case on FOB destination terms with prepaid delivery to central distribution hubs or multi-site school and facility networks.

Activity spans multiple regions and issuing bodies. The Oregon Department of Corrections, the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office (on behalf of the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Austin Independent School District (Texas), the City of Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice have all posted solicitations under or aligned with this code since May 2026. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two separate ITBs for canned fruit applesauce in May and July 2026 with responses due June 2 and July 31, 2026 respectively, citing a historical award price of approximately $21.83 per case to established vendors like Robbins Sales and MJ Kellner. The Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy released four brand-specific and brand-or-equal weekly food ordering RFPs between June and August 2026 with quarterly response windows, while the Texas HHSC posted a $4.5 million potential value IFB in May 2026 for supplemental food and consumables serving multiple state hospitals and supported living centers statewide through August 31, 2028, with responses due March 19, 2026. Gwinnett County solicited informal written quotes in October 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned products with delivery required by December 7, 2026. Buy American provisions (51 percent domestic content minimum for processed products) and state commodity preferences (Oregon's 5 percent preference for state-fabricated goods and resident bidders, for example) appear in recent awards, particularly for school nutrition and corrections procurement.
