UNSPSC 50376100: Canned or jarred organic quinces

The type of organic fruit known as organic quinces that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50376100 Canned or jarred organic quinces is a Class code, but the recent opportunities block shows little activity directly purchasing canned or jarred organic quinces. The code does not map cleanly to the solicitations surfaced in the source material. Recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows nine opportunities primarily for broader food-service commodities—canned and fresh produce, proteins, dairy, frozen items, and related consumables for schools, corrections facilities, state-supported living centers, and county services—rather than quinces specifically. Issuing bodies include county school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Austin Independent School District in Texas), state departments of corrections (Oregon and Texas), state health and human services agencies (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy, Texas HHSC), county boards of commissioners (Gwinnett County, Georgia), and municipal boards of education (Bridgeport, Connecticut). The procurement methods are predominantly IFBs and RFQs with sealed bid response, though some RFPs appear for specialty items like dried fruit bars and apple crisps.

Geographic activity centers on the South (Georgia, Texas, Connecticut), Midwest (Illinois), and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with Texas and Georgia appearing most frequently in recent solicitations. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products including canned vegetables and proteins due October 19, 2026; Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce delivered to Salem, due July 31, 2026, with a historical unit price of $21.84 per case; and Texas HHSC's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center, valued at approximately $1.5 million for the prior period, with proposals due July 13, 2026. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products spanning 382 line items across five geographic distribution areas closed May 4, 2026, with a term through August 31, 2027 and two optional one-year renewals. These solicitations typically require firm, fixed pricing quoted on a per-unit or per-case basis, FOB destination delivery, compliance with USDA and FDA standards, and commercial general liability insurance of $500,000 to $2,000,000 depending on the issuing body.
