UNSPSC 50374302: Canned or jarred organic benlehr loquats

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

UNSPSC 50374302 Canned or jarred organic benlehr loquats is a Commodity code with little recent activity aligned to its nominal scope. State and local procurement databases show no recent solicitations explicitly requesting loquats, whether organic or in conventional canned or jarred form. The code's actual purchasing activity, when present, is overwhelmed by broader food-service procurement in which canned and jarred products appear as line items within larger commodity bundles for institutional dining — school nutrition, corrections facilities, state hospitals, and county senior services. When state and local buyers solicit shelf-stable fruit products under this tier, they typically do so as part of multi-line-item food-service RFQs, RFPs, IFBs, or ITBs covering dozens of items at once, with brand-or-equal specifications and unit-price evaluation.

Recent opportunities show no activity specific to loquats but confirm the broader pattern. The Oregon Department of Corrections has issued successive ITBs for canned applesauce (May 2026 and July 2026, response deadlines June 2 and July 31 respectively), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited supplemental food and consumables including canned fruits across 210 line items (IFB HHS0016792v2, due March 19, 2026, with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued an IFB for cafeteria food products spanning 382 line items (IFB 304T-26-300CF, due May 4, 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and proteins (IFQ 140229, due October 19, 2026), and Austin Independent School District sought proposals for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (RFP 27RFP004, due July 16, 2026). These solicitations originate from state departments of corrections and health services, county education and community services boards, and independent school districts across Georgia, Oregon, Texas, Illinois, and Connecticut. The code shows minimal standalone demand — procurement occurs through integrated food-service contracts where canned fruit competes against other shelf-stable and fresh options rather than standing alone as a specialized procurement category.
