UNSPSC 50375853: Canned or jarred organic mirabelle plum

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

UNSPSC 50375853 Canned or jarred organic mirabelle plum is a Commodity code that does not match the actual goods state and local governments are soliciting under recent filings. The recent opportunities posted under this code span canned and processed fruit products—applesauce, pears, and fresh produce—procured by state departments, school districts, and special-purpose agencies for food service operations, but none of the opportunities identify mirabelle plums or organic-specific lines. The Oregon Department of Corrections and various school nutrition programs are the primary issuing bodies, with activity concentrated in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas, Connecticut) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon, Illinois). Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (bids due July 31, 2026) with a historical award of $21.84 per case to Robbins Sales, and the Hancock County Board of Education IFB for fresh produce across 200+ line items (bids due June 26, 2026) serving three school delivery locations.

State and local buyers under this code are predominantly school nutrition programs and facility food service operations—including school districts in Georgia, Texas, Connecticut, and Missouri, state supported living centers in Texas, and corrections facilities in Oregon—procuring canned and processed fruits, fresh produce, and related food staples on annual or multi-year fixed-price contracts. Issuing bodies apply standard procurement methods (IFB, RFP, RFQ) with firm, fixed pricing, FOB destination delivery, and Buy American provisions. Geographic activity is dispersed across school systems and state health and human services facilities nationwide, with notable recent concentration in Georgia (Douglas County, Muscogee County, Hancock County, Savannah-Chatham, Liberty County school systems), Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, Dallas ISD), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Connecticut (Bridgeport), and Missouri (Rockwood). The code shows material recent activity but reflects actual procurement of general processed fruit and produce items rather than the narrow organic-mirabelle-plum specification the code name implies; vendors pursuing this category should align with the broader commodity fruit and produce scope evident in the recent solicitation stream.
