UNSPSC 50375865: Canned or jarred organic red ram plums

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

UNSPSC 50375865 Canned or jarred organic red ram plums (Commodity) represents a narrow food-supply category where state and local governments procure canned and jarred fruit products for institutional food service, but recent activity under this specific code is sparse and does not clearly reflect current buying patterns. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show substantial procurement for general canned fruit, fresh produce, and diverse food products across corrections departments, school nutrition programs, and state health agencies, but only two solicitations—both from the Oregon Department of Corrections for canned fruit applesauce in May and July 2026—map directly to the canned-fruit scope implied by the code name. The issuing bodies in the broader set span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), school districts (Austin ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Dallas ISD, Douglas County School System, Hancock County Schools), and municipal departments (City of Bridgeport). School districts dominate the recent activity, reflecting sustained demand for commodity food supply to support child nutrition programs.

The geographic spread of recent opportunities extends across Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, Illinois, and Virginia, with the heaviest concentration in Texas and Georgia school districts. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce (4,760 cases, FOB destination, due July 31, 2026, with a historical price of $21.84 per case), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (historical value $1.5 million, due July 13, 2026), the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia districts (estimated annual spending $5.5 million combined across two areas, due March 4, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 delivery to 45 schools and distribution centers (due April 27, 2026). Most school nutrition procurements are structured as annual or multi-year agreements with firm fixed pricing, delivery requirements to multiple school sites, USDA compliance mandates including Buy American provisions, and evaluation based on lowest responsive bid or best value. The code itself shows limited specific activity; pursue only if your firm has established relationships in institutional canned-fruit supply and can meet state-level pricing and delivery requirements.
