UNSPSC 50373478: Canned or jarred organic rouge grapes

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

UNSPSC 50373478 Canned or jarred organic rouge grapes is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of shelf-stable fruit products for institutional food service and nutrition programs. Recent activity shows this code used loosely—solicitations tagged under it actually seek broader canned and jarred fruit (applesauce, mixed fruit, and general produce) rather than organic grapes specifically. State and local buyers under this family include county boards of education and nutrition departments (Hancock County Board of Education, Gwinnett County Department of Community Services), state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), and independent school districts (Austin Independent School District). Issuing bodies also encompass state criminal-justice agencies and facilities (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), municipal boards (City of Bridgeport Board of Education), and specialized state-supported living centers. Food service procurement under this code typically bundles multiple shelf-stable produce items into single IFBs or RFPs spanning 35 to 200+ line items, often including canned vegetables, soups, proteins, and specialty items alongside fruit products, with delivery concentrated to central distribution centers or facility kitchens.

Recent activity concentrates in the South and Pacific Northwest. Oregon Department of Corrections posted multiple ITBs for canned applesauce (approximately 1,904 to 4,760 cases per solicitation, with bid closings in May and July 2026); Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued a statewide IFB for supplemental food and consumables (210 line items, bid due March 19, 2026, with maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years); Texas Department of Criminal Justice solicited cafeteria food products across five geographic distribution areas (382 line items, bid extended to May 4, 2026); and Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items (due October 19, 2026). Secondary activity spans Illinois (weekly food orders for veterans' homes), Georgia (food and kitchen supplies), Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education commodities), and Texas school districts (Austin ISD dried fruit bars, applesauce). Pricing in recent awards has ranged from approximately $21.83 to $21.84 per case for applesauce; larger bundled procurements target firm fixed unit pricing with delivery on FOB Destination terms. Buy American provisions and domestic-content preferences appear in school-district and state-agency solicitations; Oregon applies concurrent state-resident and in-state fabrication preferences. Award cycles typically run 12 months with one or two renewal options, and issuing bodies commonly reserve the right to split awards by line item or make single or multiple awards based on best value.
