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, a Commodity code, covers shelf-stable preserved fruit products that state and local governments procure primarily for institutional food service — school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, senior services, and state-operated residential centers. The code sees activity across school districts, state departments of corrections, county boards of education, health and human services agencies, and county senior services departments. Recent opportunities show demand for both branded and open-market canned fruit products delivered in bulk case quantities to centralized warehouses and distribution centers, often as part of broader food-supply contracts that bundle proteins, vegetables, grains, and other staples under single-award or multi-award structures.

Activity clusters in the Southeast and Pacific Northwest, with recent solicitations from Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County Schools), Texas (HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, TDCJ), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Connecticut (City of Bridgeport), and Illinois (Veterans Home at Quincy). The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two separate ITBs for canned fruit applesauce in May and July 2026 (solicitation numbers S2910000016975 and S2910000017453, both due by early June and late July respectively), with historical pricing around $21.83 per case and awards to vendors including MJ Kellner and Robbins Sales. The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted an informal written quote (IWQ 140229) in October 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items including canned products, due October 19, 2026. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued a large supplemental food and consumables IFB (HHS0016792V2) covering 210 line items of fresh, frozen, and canned products for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide, with a maximum potential value of $4,500,000 over three years. Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed items appear consistently across school district and state health agency solicitations. Firms pursuing this code should expect F.O.B. destination pricing, bulk case minimums, compliance with USDA commodity and FDA standards, general commercial liability insurance requirements ranging from $500,000 to $2,000,000 per occurrence, and delivery windows of 45 to 72 hours in most jurisdictions.
