UNSPSC 50375800: Canned or jarred organic plums

Any of numerous trees and shrubs (genus prunus) with globular to oval smooth-skinned fruits that are drupes with oblong seeds that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50375800 Canned or jarred organic plums (Class) does not map to the actual scope of the recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code. The nine opportunities posted between May and October 2026 solicit canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and broad food-service commodities for schools, corrections facilities, state supported living centers, and senior services—none of which focus on canned or jarred organic plums. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two ITBs for canned applesauce (May and July 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission sought supplemental food and consumable products statewide covering 210 line items of fresh, frozen, and processed foods. Gwinnett County, Georgia requested shelf-stable food products including canned vegetables and proteins; Hancock County Schools in Georgia sought fresh produce; and Austin Independent School District, Texas requested dried fruit bars and apple crisps. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Board of Education and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice also solicited multi-line-item food commodities. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and health services, county boards of education, county governments, city school nutrition programs, and independent school districts.

Recent activity spans Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County, State of Georgia), Texas (Austin ISD, HHSC El Paso facility, TDCJ statewide), Oregon (ODOC), Illinois (Veterans Home at Quincy), and Connecticut (Bridgeport). The most recent solicitations—Gwinnett County's informal written quote for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (due October 19, 2026) and multiple Illinois quarterly food orders for the Veterans Home at Quincy (due June and August 2026)—show state and local governments buying broadly across food categories rather than specializing in organic plums. The code as tagged appears misaligned with actual procurement activity. Vendors pursuing this code should verify item-level scope in each solicitation before bidding, as the UNSPSC classification does not accurately reflect the commodities being purchased.
