UNSPSC 50375851: Canned or jarred organic marked black plums

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

UNSPSC 50375851 Canned or jarred organic marked black plums is a Commodity code that encompasses shelf-stable canned and jarred fruit products procured by state and local food service operations, including corrections facilities, state-supported living centers, school nutrition programs, and county senior services. Recent solicitations under and adjacent to this code show state and local governments buying broad categories of canned and shelf-stable produce — applesauce, mixed canned vegetables, dried fruit bars, and general food commodities — for institutional food service rather than the specific organic black-plum product the code nominally names. The issuing bodies span state corrections departments, state health and human services agencies, independent school districts, county boards of education, county senior services, and municipal nutrition centers. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois, and multiple school districts (Austin ISD, Hancock County Board of Education) and county governments (Gwinnett County, City of Bridgeport) appear as repeat or recent solicitors in the activity block.

Recent procurement activity concentrates in Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Illinois, and Connecticut. Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections soliciting canned fruit applesauce (ITB S2910000017453, due July 31, 2026, with historical award at $21.84 per case to Robbins Sales), Gwinnett County requesting informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (IWQ 140229, RFQ, due October 19, 2026), Austin Independent School District requesting dried fruit bars and apple crisps (RFP 27RFP004, due July 16, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission seeking supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and living centers statewide (IFB HHS0016792V2, due March 19, 2026, with maximum potential value of $4,500,000 over three years), and the City of Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center requesting commodities across 115 line items including canned fruit and vegetable products (IFB BNB053266, due June 26, 2026). Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content appear in school district solicitations; state procurements for corrections and health facilities typically emphasize USDA compliance, firm fixed pricing, FOB destination delivery, and liability insurance minimums of $500,000 to $2,000,000 depending on the issuing body.
