UNSPSC 50375805: Canned or jarred organic autumn giant plums

The variety of organic plums known as organic autumn giant plums that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50375805 Canned or jarred organic autumn giant plums is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to classify shelf-stable preserved fruit products, though the recent opportunities block shows minimal direct activity under this specific code. Instead, recent state and local solicitations tagged under broad food-service codes or commodity categories are purchasing canned and preserved fruit items as line items within larger food-supply contracts—including canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, and mixed fresh and frozen produce. Counties, school districts, state agencies, and corrections departments are the primary issuing bodies, with repeat buyers including the State of Illinois (weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), the Oregon Department of Corrections (canned applesauce procurement), and school districts across Georgia, Texas, and Connecticut conducting annual food-service bidding. The work spans food provisioning for institutional kitchens, correctional facilities, senior services centers, and school nutrition programs.

The code shows recent activity concentrated in the South (Georgia, Texas, Connecticut) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with additional state-level activity in Illinois. Representative solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (response date July 31, 2026, historical award to Robbins Sales at $21.84 per case); Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (response due October 19, 2026, delivered to the Senior Services Center); and the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's recurring weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy under brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications (multiple cycles posted with August 24, 2026 response dates). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables to state hospitals and supported living centers (response deadline March 19, 2026, maximum potential value $4.5 million over three years) represents a larger institutional procurement encompassing preserved fruits among 210 line items. Most solicitations use IFB or informal written quote methods, require FOB destination delivery with prepaid freight, demand USDA or FDA compliance certification, and award to lowest responsive and responsible bidder or best value, with contract terms typically running one to three years.
