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

UNSPSC 50374911 Canned or jarred organic big john nectarines is a Commodity code covering shelf-stable preserved fruit products procured by state and local governments for food service operations. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers using this code to source canned and jarred fruit products — including applesauce, dried fruit bars, and fresh produce alongside shelf-stable staples — for school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, senior services, veterans' homes, and state-supported living centers. The issuing bodies span school districts (Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education, City of Bridgeport Board of Education), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Georgia, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Hancock County Board of Education), and municipal nutrition centers. Procurement volumes are substantial: recent solicitations request 1,904 to 4,760 cases of canned fruit, with historical contract values reaching $1.5 million annually for broader food and consumables categories and up to $4.5 million over three years for comprehensive state hospital and supported living center food service. Award criteria typically emphasize lowest responsive and responsible bidder on a per-unit or per-case basis, though some jurisdictions evaluate best value and reserve the right to split awards across multiple vendors by line item.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and Southwest, with the most recent opportunities posted by Gwinnett County (Georgia, October 2026), the State of Illinois (August and June 2026), Oregon Department of Corrections (July and May 2026), Austin Independent School District (June 2026), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia, June 2026), the City of Bridgeport (Connecticut, June 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Texas Department of Criminal Justice (May and earlier 2026).
