UNSPSC 50375325: Canned or jarred organic flat type peaches

The variety of organic peaches known as organic flat type peaches that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50375325 Canned or jarred organic flat type peaches is a Commodity code that in practice captures state and local procurement of canned and jarred fruit products—applesauce, pears, and other shelf-stable fruit—for institutional food service, not organic peaches specifically. The code sees active use by state corrections departments, state health and human services agencies, school districts, and municipal school boards buying food supplies for inmate meals, residential care facilities, and child nutrition programs. Recent solicitations show work parceled into individual line items or broader food supply contracts where canned fruit is one component alongside proteins, produce, dairy, and dry goods, with ordering through e-procurement portals and delivery to central distribution warehouses or individual school sites.

State agencies and school districts across the South and Pacific Northwest drive the recent activity. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two ITBs for canned applesauce (S2910000017453 due July 31, 2026, and S2910000016975 due June 2, 2026), each soliciting multi-truckload quantities with FOB destination pricing and Oregon-goods preferences. School districts in Georgia (Hancock County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Liberty County, and Douglas County) and Texas (Austin ISD and Dallas ISD) are procuring fresh produce and specialty food items for the 2026–27 school year; while these solicitations emphasize fresh produce, canned and jarred fruit items appear in broader food supply RFPs issued by Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHS0017449 due July 13, 2026, with $1.5 million historical value) and state of Illinois (FY-27 quarterly food order). The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Board of Education nutrition center and Texas Department of Criminal Justice also appear as active buyers. Pricing for applesauce has historically settled near $21.84 per case (Oregon) and varies with USDA commodity specifications, Buy American Act compliance, and minimum shelf-life requirements of one year. Delivery terms uniformly require FOB destination with prepaid freight, firm fixed pricing for the contract period, and compliance with USDA commodity grades and FDA food safety standards. School districts evaluate on lowest responsive bid or best value after compliance screening; state agencies often apply regional price-preference set-asides where applicable.
