UNSPSC 50374942: Canned or jarred organic ruby diamond nectarines

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

UNSPSC 50374942 Canned or jarred organic ruby diamond nectarines is a Commodity code that describes shelf-stable, preserved fruit products state and local governments procure for food service operations in schools, correctional facilities, senior services, and state-supported living centers. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers sourcing canned fruit products — predominantly applesauce and dried fruit items — as components of broader food-service procurement bundles rather than as standalone nectarine purchases. The issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home system, State of Georgia), county school boards (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Austin Independent School District in Texas), city nutrition centers (Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center in Connecticut), county social services (Gwinnett County Senior Services), and state correctional and health systems (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, ODOC). The scope of actual procurement reflects shelf-stable fruit in multiple forms — canned applesauce in cases of 40,000 pounds (Oregon ODOC), dried fruit bars and apple crisps (Austin ISD), mixed canned fruit products integrated into multi-line food commodities bids, and fresh produce spanning apples and citrus (Hancock County Schools). Pricing in recent awards ranges from $21.827 to $21.84 per case for applesauce, with larger food-service contracts valued up to $1.5 million annually (Texas HHSC El Paso facility) and $4.5 million over three years (Texas HHSC statewide supplemental food).

Recent activity clusters in the Southeast and South, with Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County Schools, State of Georgia), Texas (Austin ISD, HHSC, TDCJ), and Oregon (ODOC) showing multiple concurrent solicitations. Illinois and Connecticut also appear as active jurisdictions. Representative opportunities include Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases due July 31, 2026, with 5% Oregon-goods and 5% resident-bidder preferences), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB SN002-2027 for fresh produce including apples and specialty items (200+ line items, due June 26, 2026, with Buy American 51% domestic content requirement), and Texas HHSC's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at El Paso State Supported Living Center ($1.5 million historical value, due July 11, 2026). Texas Health and Human Services Commission also solicited supplemental food and consumables statewide (IFB HHS0016792V2, $4.5 million potential three-year value, March 19, 2026 deadline). Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal written quotes for shelf-stable food items including canned products (IFB 140229, due October 19, 2026). The code shows steady activity under school nutrition, prison food service, and state-facility procurement channels; most awards specify FOB destination delivery, firm fixed pricing, and compliance with USDA commodity or grade standards and Buy American provisions where applicable.
