UNSPSC 50377032: Canned or jarred organic sea buckhorn berries

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

UNSPSC 50377032 Canned or jarred organic sea buckhorn berries is a Commodity code that state and local governments buy primarily as shelf-stable food products for institutional food service—school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, senior services, veterans' homes, and state health and human services operations. Recent solicitations show that this code is tagged to a broader category of canned and jarred produce and shelf-stable food items, though the recent opportunities block contains no specific solicitations exclusively for canned or jarred sea buckhorn berries. Instead, the code appears to aggregate with wider food-procurement categories that include canned applesauce, canned vegetables, canned proteins, and other preserved fruit and vegetable products used in bulk food service operations. The issuing bodies reflect the diversity of state and local institutional procurement: county boards of education (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia), state departments of corrections (Oregon Department of Corrections), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), independent school districts (Austin Independent School District in Texas), county purchasing offices (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), state veterans' homes (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), and municipal education and nutrition operations (City of Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut).

Activity under the broader food-commodities category spans multiple states, with recent opportunities posted from Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut between May and October 2026. Representative solicitations include Gwinnett County's October 2026 informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items with a response deadline of October 19, 2026; the Oregon Department of Corrections' July and May 2026 invitations to bid on canned applesauce (ITB S2910000017453 due July 31, 2026, and ITB S2910000016975 due June 2, 2026) with five-percent preferences for Oregon-fabricated goods and resident bidders; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's multiple quarterly food solicitations for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy under brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications with proposals due in June and August 2026; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's May 2026 invitation for bid covering 210 line items of supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide, with a contract ceiling of $4.5 million over three years. These jurisdictions typically require FOB Destination delivery, compliance with USDA and FDA standards, firm fixed pricing, and commercial general liability insurance of $500,000 to $2 million per occurrence.
