UNSPSC 50375810: Canned or jarred organic black beaut plums

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

UNSPSC 50375810, Canned or jarred organic black beaut plums, is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure shelf-stable canned fruit products for institutional food service and nutrition programs — though the recent-opportunities data show no direct solicitations for this specific product line. Instead, the code's recent activity reflects broader canned and fresh fruit procurement by corrections departments, health and human services agencies, school districts, and county nutrition offices buying applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and mixed food commodities that may include canned plums as line items within larger RFQs, IFBs, and RFPs. The issuing bodies span state corrections and health departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas HHSC, Texas TDCJ), state education systems, county boards of education (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia), city school districts (Austin ISD, City of Bridgeport Board of Education), county purchasing offices (Gwinnett County), and special-purpose nutrition centers. School nutrition programs and state institutional food service operations represent the primary buying cohort, with recurring procurement by Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas HHSC for quarterly and annual food supply contracts.

Recent activity is concentrated in the South and Pacific Northwest, with the most recent solicitations posted from Georgia (Gwinnett County IWQ 140229, June 2026), Illinois (State of Illinois weekly food orders for Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy, June and August 2026), Oregon (ODOC canned applesauce ITB, May and July 2026), Texas (HHSC supplemental food IFB, TDCJ cafeteria products IFB, May 2026), Connecticut (City of Bridgeport commodities bid, June 2026), and supporting activity in Arizona and Georgia. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (due July 31, 2026, historical award $21.84 per case), the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center covering NIGP classes 380, 385, 390, and 393 (due July 13, 2026, historical value $1.5 million annually), Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 for over 200 line items of fresh and specialty produce for the 2026-27 school year (due June 26, 2026), and Gwinnett County's informal written quote IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (due October 19, 2026). Buy American provisions requiring a minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products are standard in school nutrition procurement; Oregon and Texas both apply vendor preferences for in-state suppliers. Pricing is consistently firm-fixed with FOB destination delivery, typically within 45 to 60 days of order, and awards are made on lowest responsive and responsible bid or best-value criteria with the option to split awards across multiple vendors.
