UNSPSC 50373480: Canned or jarred organic ruby red seedless grapes

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

UNSPSC 50373480, Canned or jarred organic ruby red seedless grapes (Commodity), does not reflect state and local procurement activity in the recent-opportunities block. The nine opportunities posted between May and October 2026 span fresh produce (apples, berries, leafy greens, melons), dried fruit bars, canned applesauce, and broad commodity food purchases—none of which are organic canned or jarred grapes. The code's nominal scope is too narrow or specialized to match current solicitation patterns. Issuing bodies across the dataset include county boards of education (Hancock County, Georgia; Austin ISD, Texas), state corrections and health agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections; Texas Health and Human Services Commission; Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state-operated veterans homes (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), counties (Gwinnett County, Georgia), cities (Bridgeport, Connecticut), and municipal departments. Food procurement is driven by institutional food service—schools, prisons, state hospitals and supported living centers, and senior services. The geographic spread covers Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut, with the most recent concentration in the South (Georgia, Texas) and Midwest (Illinois).

Representative opportunities demonstrate the scale and operational focus. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an IFQ on October 13, 2026, for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, canned vegetables) due October 19, with delivery required within 72 hours and F.O.B. destination terms to a senior services center. The Oregon Department of Corrections posted an ITB on July 10, 2026, for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce in five full truck loads at $21.84 per case historical pricing, due July 31, with Oregon-goods and resident-bidder preferences of 5 percent each. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited supplemental food and consumables (fresh, frozen, dry, and refrigerated products) across 210 line items in May 2026 for state hospitals and supported living centers with a maximum three-year potential value of $4,500,000, requiring responses to at least 95 percent of line items and firm pricing through the initial contract period. These procurements emphasize volume purchasing, firm fixed pricing, destination delivery, compliance with USDA/FDA standards, commercial liability insurance, and preference or set-aside eligibility in some jurisdictions (Oregon's local preferences, Texas HUB subcontracting encouragement, Connecticut MBE/CBE applicability).
