UNSPSC 50377028: Canned or jarred organic rambutan

The type of organic fruit known as organic rambutan that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50377028 Canned or jarred organic rambutan is a Commodity code that state and local governments rarely procure under its stated definition; recent solicitations tagged with this code are actually buying mainstream canned fruit products (applesauce, pears) and fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, eggs) for school nutrition programs and correctional and state-supported living facilities. The mix of issuing bodies is dominated by school districts and state agencies—Austin Independent School District, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Douglas County School System, Dallas Independent School District, and the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and Georgia Department of Education. A few cities appear as food-service buyers (Bridgeport, Connecticut Board of Education), though school nutrition programs drive the majority of recent activity. Scope centers on volume procurement of shelf-stable and fresh foods—canned applesauce by the truckload (4,760 to 40,000-pound quantities), dried fruit bars, fresh produce by the case (spanning 60 to 900+ line items per solicitation), proteins, dairy, grains, and consumable supplies. Evaluation typically prioritizes price competitiveness, compliance with nutritional and Buy American standards, past vendor performance, and delivery capability to multiple school sites or warehouse locations.

Geographic concentration is heaviest in the South and mid-Atlantic—Georgia (Douglas County, Muscogee County, Liberty County, Hancock County, Savannah-Chatham), Texas (Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Corpus Christi, El Paso, statewide HHSC and TDCJ), Connecticut (Bridgeport), and Virginia (Fairfax County)—with recurring activity in Oregon (Department of Corrections) and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI). Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with a July 31, 2026 response deadline and historical pricing of $21.84 per case; the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia school districts with a March 4, 2026 response deadline and estimated annual spend of $4.4 million for Area One; and Dallas Independent School District's RFP JC250079 for various food products to the Maria Luna Warehouse with a response deadline of April 2, 2026. Contracts typically run fiscal or school years (July–June), include renewal options of one to four years, enforce Buy American and domestic commodity content minimums (51 percent for processed foods), and require FOB destination pricing with firm fixed rates and no fuel surcharges. The code shows active, ongoing demand from state and local nutrition and food-service operations, though solicitation activity does not track organic rambutan specifically.
