UNSPSC 50375836: Canned or jarred organic greengage plums

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

UNSPSC 50375836 Canned or jarred organic greengage plums is a Commodity code that describes shelf-stable preserved fruit products for institutional food service, though recent state and local opportunities under this code focus primarily on broader canned fruit categories—applesauce, mixed canned vegetables, and general food commodities—rather than the specific greengage-plum variant. State and local governments soliciting under related fruit-preservation codes procure canned and preserved produce for correctional facilities, veterans homes, state-supported living centers, school nutrition programs, county senior services, and municipal education departments. Solicitations typically specify USDA commodity standards, shelf-life minimums of one year, compliance with FDA and USDA grades, temperature and packaging requirements for institutional delivery, and firm fixed unit pricing quoted on a per-case or per-unit basis with all transportation and fuel surcharges included on an FOB-destination basis. Issuing bodies range from state corrections and health departments to county boards of education, school districts, and city nutrition centers, with repeat solicitations flowing through state centralized procurement offices and regional institutional distributors.

Recent activity concentrates in the South and Pacific Northwest. The Oregon Department of Corrections has issued two ITBs for canned applesauce (May 2026 and July 2026), both delivered to Salem with 5 percent local-vendor preferences applied; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Texas Department of Criminal Justice solicited supplemental food and consumables and cafeteria products statewide covering 210 and 382 line items respectively; Gwinnett County, Georgia requested informal written quotes for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and proteins due October 19, 2026; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office issued multiple quarterly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy on brand-specific and brand-or-equal bases; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut requested commodity bids for the Board of Education Nutrition Center with Buy American compliance and MBE/CBE eligibility due June 26, 2026; the Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia solicited fresh produce spanning 200+ line items for school year 2027; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited food and consumables for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a historical contract value of $1.5 million for the prior period. The code shows steady institutional demand but limited visibility to greengage-plum-specific opportunities; vendors should track state corrections, veterans affairs, and school nutrition category consolidations where mixed canned-fruit line items are bundled.
