UNSPSC 50375900: Canned or jarred organic pomegranates

A thick-skinned several-celled reddish berry that is about the size of an orange and has many seeds with pulpy crimson arils of tart flavor that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50375900 Canned or jarred organic pomegranates (Class code) does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The source records ten recent opportunities spanning June 2026 through October 2026, but none explicitly solicits organic pomegranates; instead, they cover broad food-service categories including fresh produce, canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, and mixed food and consumable products for schools, corrections facilities, state hospitals, and county nutrition programs. The code appears to be either misapplied by issuing bodies to broader food procurement, or it sees minimal standalone demand for the specific commodity it names.

State and local buyers soliciting food items under related codes include county boards of education (Hancock County Schools, Austin Independent School District, Bridgeport Board of Education), county commissioners (Gwinnett County), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), and municipal boards (City of Bridgeport). The geographic footprint spans Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County's IFQ for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026; the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, July 31, 2026 response deadline); and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide (210 line items across frozen, fresh, dry, and refrigerated products). None of these solicitations specifically name organic pomegranates or equivalent products, suggesting the code captures minimal recent buying activity aligned to its nominal scope.
