UNSPSC 50374301: Canned or jarred organic advance loquats

The variety of organic loquats known as organic advance loquats that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50374301 Canned or jarred organic advance loquats is a Commodity code that in practice encompasses state and local procurement of shelf-stable canned and jarred fruit products for food service operations — including canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, and other preserved fruit items — rather than the narrow category name suggests. State and local issuing bodies are primarily correctional departments, state supported living centers, school districts, county social services, and boards of education; the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State of Illinois, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and school districts in Georgia and Texas appear as repeat buyers across recent solicitations. Work solicited under this code ranges from bulk procurement of canned applesauce for prison food service to supplemental fruit and consumable products for state hospitals and living centers, fresh produce for school nutrition programs, and general commodity food items for county senior services and municipal education systems. Solicitations typically specify USDA commodity compliance, shelf-life minimums, packaging and delivery standards, and firm fixed pricing on a per-unit basis; many require FOB Destination delivery with prepaid freight to multiple distribution centers or school sites.
