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

UNSPSC 50375332 Canned or jarred organic jersey queen peaches (Commodity) encompasses shelf-stable canned fruit products that state and local governments purchase for food service operations, institutional feeding programs, and nutrition centers. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers procuring canned and jarred peaches, applesauce, and related preserved fruits for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, state veterans' homes, senior services, and state-supported living centers. The issuing-body mix spans state departments of corrections and health and human services, county boards of education and county senior services, independent school districts, city boards of education, and state procurement offices. Procurement occurs through formal bid solicitations (IFB, ITB, RFP, and IWQ) with firm, fixed unit pricing quoted per case or ounce and delivery on an FOB destination basis with prepaid freight. Vendors must meet USDA commodity specifications, maintain shelf-life minimums (typically one year remaining from best-use-by date), comply with FDA/USDA food safety standards, hold commercial general liability insurance ($500,000 to $2,000,000 per occurrence depending on buyer), provide three or more vendor references, and certify compliance with state worker verification and anti-collusion requirements. Buy American provisions apply in school nutrition and certain state institutional procurement, requiring a minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products.
