UNSPSC 50374909: Canned or jarred organic august red nectarines

The variety of organic nectarines known as organic august red nectarines that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50374909 Canned or jarred organic august red nectarines (Commodity) covers shelf-stable canned fruit products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service, corrections facilities, schools, and social service programs. Recent solicitations show purchasing focused on bulk canned fruit and processed fruit items including applesauce, dried fruit bars, and apple crisps rather than the specific narrow product line the code name implies—a common divergence in state and local procurement where codes serve broader commodity families than their nomenclature suggests. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state departments (corrections, health and human services), county school boards, independent school districts, county social service departments, and municipal nutrition centers. The State of Illinois has solicited repeatedly for weekly food orders at the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy; the Oregon Department of Corrections has posted multiple invitations for canned applesauce; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission has issued large-scale bids for supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and supported living centers statewide.

Recent activity concentrates in the South and Southwest, with solicitations from Texas (multiple state agencies and TDCJ), Georgia (state procurement and Gwinnett County), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Illinois (state level), and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport). The Oregon Department of Corrections issued an ITB for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (ITB S-29100-00017453, bids due July 31, 2026) offering a combined 10% Oregon-vendor preference and specifying FOB destination delivery to Salem with five truckload deliveries 45 days apart; the historical award price was $21.84 per case to Robbins Sales. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (IWQ 140229, quotes due October 19, 2026) for delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office has solicited quarterly weekly food orders (brand-specific and brand-or-equal variants) for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy for Q4 FY-27 (proposals due August 24, 2026). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued an IFB for supplemental food and consumables with 210 line items across fresh, frozen, and canned products serving state hospitals and supported living centers, with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years (bids due March 19, 2026, with anticipated start at award date). The Buy American provision requiring 51 percent domestic content for processed products applies in school district procurements under the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act.
