UNSPSC 50375829: Canned or jarred organic empress plums

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

UNSPSC 50375829 Canned or jarred organic empress plums (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity under this code. The available opportunities show solicitation for canned fruit applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and broader food service commodities—none for organic empress plums specifically. State and local governments use this code designation, but the recent procurement record spans food service for corrections facilities, school districts, health and human services centers, and county boards of education across Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Illinois, and Missouri, sourcing commodity foods far broader than a single premium plum product.

The actual buying activity under this code number reflects institutional food procurement across multiple issuing-body types: state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), county and independent school districts (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, Hancock County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Rockwood R-VI School District), municipal boards of education (Bridgeport Board of Education), and regional cooperative purchasing entities. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a prior-period value of $1.5 million (due July 13, 2026), Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 across 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026), and Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two (due March 4, 2026). Geographic concentration appears heaviest in Georgia and Texas, with sustained activity in Oregon, with scattered opportunities in Missouri, Connecticut, and Illinois. The code shows robust recent activity, but the mismatch between "organic empress plums" and the actual commodity foods being procured suggests either miscoding in source records or dormant demand for this specific product line.
