UNSPSC 50374911: Canned or jarred organic big john nectarines

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 that, based on recent state and local procurement activity, maps poorly to the actual goods being solicited. The opportunities tagged with this code show instead a pattern of general food service procurement — canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and frozen or canned commodity items for school districts, state correctional facilities, health and human services agencies, and other institutional food service operations. The issuing bodies reflect the institutional food-service mix: state departments of corrections, state health and human services commissions, independent school districts, county boards of education, and municipal school systems. Repeat buyers include the Oregon Department of Corrections (two canned-fruit ITBs in the recent window), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (multiple supplemental food solicitations), and several Georgia school districts (county boards and the Douglas County cooperative). The scope of work spans high-volume commodity food procurement — cases of canned and frozen fruits, vegetables, proteins, dairy, and prepared entrees delivered on FOB Destination terms to central distribution warehouses and school cafeterias, with firm-fixed pricing, Buy American compliance, and USDA-grade compliance required across the board.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Missouri, with secondary activity in Connecticut and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities 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 delivered to Salem; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products across four NIGP classes for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with historical value of $1.5 million; the Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 (posted April 6, 2026, due April 27, 2026) for Master Grocery K-12 across 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens; and the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-003 (posted January 21, 2026, due February 18, 2026) for food supply and distribution services to support 32,000 meals daily with estimated annual spending of $9,000,000. The code itself shows a mismatch with actual procurement — "organic big john nectarines" does not appear in any of the recent opportunities; the activity is instead routine institutional food-service commodity buying with standard Buy American, USDA compliance, and school nutrition compliance mandates.
