UNSPSC 50375103: Canned or jarred organic mexican yellow papayas

The variety of organic papayas known as organic mexican yellow papayas that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50375103 Canned or jarred organic Mexican yellow papayas is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, sees limited direct demand; state and local food-service procurement under this code encompasses shelf-stable produce items as part of broader food-supply contracts rather than standalone papaya-specific buys. The recent opportunities block shows no dedicated papaya solicitations—papayas appear as individual line items within multi-category fresh-produce or food-commodity RFPs and IFBs issued by county boards of education, state departments, and regional food-service operations. Issuing bodies include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Austin Independent School District in Texas), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs, State of Georgia), county purchasing offices (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Georgia), and municipal education departments (City of Bridgeport Board of Education, Connecticut). These jurisdictions typically bundle produce, proteins, dairy, and dry goods into single contracts with 100+ line items, where papayas or other specialty fruits compete alongside commodity staples.

Geographic activity centers on Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, Austin ISD), Georgia (Hancock County Schools, Gwinnett County, State of Georgia), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Illinois (Veterans Home at Quincy), and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport). Recent representative opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education's fresh-produce IFB #SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026), which lists papayas among 200+ line items delivered to three school sites under a July 2026–June 2027 contract period, and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumables IFB HHS0016792V2 (due March 19, 2026), covering 210 line items across state hospitals and state supported living centers with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years. Papayas are not demanded as standalone products; vendors pursuing this UNSPSC code should expect to bid papayas as part of large, multi-category food-service contracts where fresh and specialty produce represents a fraction of total volume and award typically goes to the lowest responsive bidder or best-value provider across the entire line-item slate.
