UNSPSC 50373630: Canned or jarred organic mission grapes

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

UNSPSC 50373630 Canned or jarred organic mission grapes (Commodity) covers shelf-stable fruit products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service, though recent solicitation activity under this code reflects broader canned and processed fruit categories rather than organic mission grapes specifically. State and local buyers use this code to source canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh and processed produce, and general commodity food supplies for correctional facilities, veterans' homes, state-supported living centers, school districts, senior services, and nutrition centers. Issuing bodies span state departments of corrections and health and human services, county boards of education, city nutrition departments, and independent school districts; the Oregon Department of Corrections and the State of Illinois have each posted multiple food-service solicitations in the review period. The scope of work encompasses institutional bulk purchasing of shelf-stable fruits and fruit products meeting USDA commodity and FDA standards, with delivery on FOB destination terms to central distribution points and compliance with Buy American provisions where applicable under the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, Texas, and Connecticut. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITBs for canned applesauce in both May and July 2026 (solicitation numbers S2910000016975 and S2910000017453, respectively), seeking approximately 1,904 and 4,760 cases with historical pricing near $21.83–$21.84 per case and Oregon-goods and resident-bidder preferences of 5 percent each. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office solicited weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy across multiple quarters (June and August 2026 postings, brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications). Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (due October 19, 2026, via IWQ 140229). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued an IFB for supplemental food and consumables with 210 line items and a maximum three-year value of $4.5 million (HHS0016792V2, bid deadline March 19, 2026). Austin Independent School District posted an RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (27RFP004, due July 16, 2026). The code shows steady quarterly and seasonal buying cycles tied to fiscal-year food-service contracts and institutional resupply schedules.
