UNSPSC 50374620: Canned or jarred organic honeydew melons

Any of a variety of organic muskmelon vines having fruit with a smooth white rind and white or greenish flesh that does not have a musky smell that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50374620 Canned or jarred organic honeydew melons is a Commodity code. State and local procurement activity under this code remains sparse; recent opportunities do not feature canned or jarred honeydew melons specifically. The most recent opportunities soliciting under this code involve broader food and consumable products for institutional food service — including canned applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit, and general cafeteria or nutrition center provisioning — where honeydew melons, if procured at all, appear as one line item within a much larger scope of shelf-stable and fresh food products. School districts, state departments, county boards, and municipal purchasing offices source canned and jarred fruit products as part of routine institutional nutrition or community services food supply contracts, typically bundled with proteins, vegetables, grains, and other staples rather than solicited in isolation.

Recent opportunities across this code show issuing bodies spanning state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, State of Georgia), county boards (Gwinnett County, Hancock County), school districts (Austin Independent School District, Bridgeport Board of Education), and municipal purchasing offices (City of Bridgeport). Geographic activity concentrates in the South and West — Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, and Texas dominate the recent-opportunities list — with activity also present in Connecticut. Representative recent solicitations include Gwinnett County's IFB for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables (due October 19, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned fruit applesauce at roughly 1,900 cases (due June 2, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumable products spanning 210 line items for state hospitals and supported living centers (with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years), and Austin Independent School District's RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026). Canned honeydew melons specifically do not appear in any of the recent opportunities reviewed; the code shows marginal relevance to current state and local procurement activity.
