UNSPSC 50374004: Canned or jarred organic malayan kumquats

The variety of organic kumquats known as organic malayan kumquats that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50374004 Canned or jarred organic Malayan kumquats is a Commodity code that in practice captures a narrow slice of shelf-stable produce procurements by state and local agencies, though the recent opportunities tagged to this code show little activity specifically targeting kumquats. The code appears in state and local food-service buying across school districts, corrections departments, health and human services facilities, county nutrition programs, and municipal boards of education. Recent solicitations under this and closely related produce codes span fresh and processed fruit categories including canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, and broad fresh-produce buys; the issuing bodies include the Oregon Department of Corrections (multiple ITBs for canned applesauce in May and July 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (supplemental and institutional food procurements), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (cafeteria food products across warehouse regions), school nutrition programs in Hancock County Georgia and Austin Independent School District, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (community services food items), the State of Illinois (weekly food orders for veterans homes), and the City of Bridgeport Connecticut (board of education nutrition center). These buyers typically use ITBs, IFBs, and RFPs for produce and commodity foods, with response cycles of two to six weeks.

Activity is concentrated in Georgia, Texas, Illinois, Oregon, and Connecticut. The Oregon Department of Corrections has posted multiple canned applesauce ITBs (S2910000016975 due June 2, 2026, and S2910000017453 due July 31, 2026) with historical pricing near $21.83 per case and volumes around 1,900 to 4,760 cases per award; both offerings include a combined 10 percent preference for Oregon-fabricated goods and Oregon-headquartered bidders. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited supplemental food and consumables statewide (HHS0016792V2, responses due March 19, 2026, with a maximum three-year value of $4.5 million) and food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026). Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026); the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office posted multiple quarterly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications, June and August 2026). Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia sought fresh produce for school year 2026–27 (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026) with over 200 line items and Buy American domestic-content requirements. None of the recent opportunities explicitly target canned or jarred organic Malayan kumquats, suggesting the code is either rarely used by state and local agencies for this specific product or is misapplied in existing procurement records.
