UNSPSC 50375830: Canned or jarred organic freedom plums

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

UNSPSC 50375830 Canned or jarred organic freedom plums is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope names a specific product—canned or jarred organic plums—yet recent solicitations tagged to this code cover broad food and consumable procurement for institutional food service, including fresh produce, proteins, dairy, baked goods, frozen entrees, and mixed shelf-stable items. The issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), counties (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia, Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia), cities (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut), and school districts (Austin Independent School District). Repeat buyers across the recent-opportunities block include the State of Illinois (three separate quarterly food solicitations for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy) and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (two separate food and consumable procurements).

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and Southwest, with recent solicitations posted by Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County, State of Georgia), Texas (Austin ISD, HHSC, TDCJ via Comptroller), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Illinois (Chief Procurement Office), and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport). Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned applesauce (approximately 4,760 cases, bids due July 31, 2026, historical price $21.84 per case), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide (210 line items including fresh, frozen, and dry food products, bid deadline March 19, 2026, estimated three-year contract value up to $4.5 million), the Texas Comptroller's IFB for cafeteria food products to TDCJ warehouse locations (approximately 382 line items, bid deadline May 4, 2026), and Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items (quote due October 19, 2026). The mismatch between the code's specific name and the breadth of institutional food service being procured suggests vendors should verify commodity-level tagging before pursuing opportunities under this code.
