UNSPSC 50375701: Canned or jarred organic black kat plucot

The variety of organic plucots known as organic black kat plucot that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50375701 Canned or jarred organic black kat plucot, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity directly aligned with the code's specific scope; state and local governments buying under this code are actually purchasing canned and jarred fruit products far broader than the black kat plucot variety named in the taxonomy. The Oregon Department of Corrections procured canned fruit applesauce under ITB S-29100-00017453 due July 31, 2026, and again under ITB S-29100-00016975 due June 2, 2026, both specifying USDA 2011 commodity standards for canned fruit packed in juice, water, or light syrup. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued multiple IFBs for supplemental food and consumable products serving state hospitals and state supported living centers, encompassing canned goods alongside fresh and frozen items. School districts dominate the issuing bodies under codes in this family, with recent opportunities from Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Dallas Independent School District (Texas), and Austin Independent School District (Texas), all soliciting grocery and food service products including canned or preserved fruits. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut and the City of Bridgeport Board of Education also issued commodity food solicitations. Correctional and health-care facilities appear as secondary buyers, with state corrections and health and human services agencies in Oregon and Texas posting repetitively for canned fruit and supplemental food items.

The code shows heaviest recent activity in Georgia, Texas, Virginia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Oregon. The Oregon Department of Corrections' repeated procurement of canned applesauce—4,760 cases due July 31, 2026, and 1,904 cases due June 2, 2026, at historical pricing near $21.84 per case—illustrates the commodity's standing application in institutional foodservice. School nutrition programs across Georgia, Texas, and Virginia are soliciting broader grocery categories that encompass canned and jarred fruits as component line items within larger multi-category food awards. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission's February 2026 IFB HHS0016792 for supplemental food and consumables, with a maximum potential contract value of $4.5 million over three years across 23 qualified ordering entities statewide, represents the largest scope visible in recent postings. Canned fruit procurement is typically embedded in larger institutional food supply contracts rather than solicited as standalone commodity line items, making this specific code less active as a standalone procurement category than the broader food and grocery family codes that encompass it.
