UNSPSC 50374102: Canned or jarred organic bearss sicilian lemons

The variety of organic lemons known as organic bearss sicilian lemons that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50374102 Canned or jarred organic Bearss Sicilian lemons is a Commodity code that represents a narrow product line within food procurement — but state and local solicitations tagged under this code show minimal activity directly aligned with the code's nominal scope. Recent opportunities show school districts, counties, state agencies, and corrections departments procuring broadly across shelf-stable and refrigerated food categories, with fresh produce, canned proteins, dairy, and specialty food items dominating actual buy patterns. When canned or jarred citrus does appear, it is typically grouped within larger, multi-line-item food and consumables RFQs and IFBs rather than as a standalone procurement vehicle. The issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), county boards of education (Gwinnett County, Hancock County), independent school districts (Austin Independent School District, Bridgeport Board of Education), and special-purpose food service operations (state supported living centers, veterans' homes, correctional facilities). No issuing body appears more than once for citrus-specific buys in the recent block.

Recent activity is concentrated in the South and Midwest. Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Texas Department of Criminal Justice lead with large multi-category food procurement — HHS0016792V2 in May 2026 covered 210 line items across fresh, frozen, and refrigerated products with a potential $4.5 million value over three years, and TDCJ's 304T26300CF in May 2026 encompassed 382 line items for cafeteria food across five geographic areas. Oregon Department of Corrections issued two separate applesauce ITBs (S2910000016975 in May 2026 and S2910000017453 in July 2026) but neither targeted citrus products. Georgia, Illinois, and Connecticut posted food commodity solicitations in May and June 2026. No recent state or local opportunity explicitly names Bearss Sicilian lemons, organic canned citrus, or any single-item citrus procurement. The code shows little procurement activity distinct from general food and consumables categories, suggesting vendors should monitor broader commodity food RFPs and IFBs where citrus items may be embedded as line items rather than anticipate standalone buys at the Commodity-code level.
