UNSPSC 50374632: Canned or jarred organic mirage melons

The variety of organic melons known as organic mirage melons that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50374632 Canned or jarred organic mirage melons is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it show little alignment with the code's nominal scope—the solicitations describe fresh produce, dried fruit bars, canned applesauce, food service groceries, and broader food supply contracts, not canned or jarred organic melons. State and local procurement offices across Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Illinois, and Missouri are issuing these food-service opportunities, with school districts and state health and corrections departments as the primary buying bodies. School nutrition programs dominate the activity, with districts in Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and elsewhere conducting annual bids for fresh produce, grocery staples, and prepared foods; state-level food service for corrections, mental health, and supported living facilities also regularly solicit under or near this code.

Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 (posted July 10, 2026, due July 31, 2026) for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at $21.84 per case, with a 10% combined Oregon goods and resident-vendor preference; the Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 (posted June 26, 2026, due July 16, 2026) for dried fruit bars and apple crisps; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products to supply an El Paso State Supported Living Center with historical volume of $1.5 million annually. The Douglas County School System in Georgia issued RFP SN 26-004 (posted February 4, 2026, due March 4, 2026) through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts, with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two. Activity is concentrated in school-district procurement cycles (typically bid windows in late winter and early spring for upcoming July contract start dates) and ongoing state institutional food-service contracts. The code shows no recent activity directly matching its product name, and the mismatch suggests either tagging error or use of the code as a catch-all for institutional food commodities more broadly.
