UNSPSC 50202501: Blackberry concentrate

A condensed liquid form of blackberrys which has had the majority of its base component, primarily water, removed.

UNSPSC 50202501 Blackberry concentrate, a Commodity code, appears infrequently in recent state and local procurement activity. The source material shows no state or local opportunities directly soliciting blackberry concentrate or commodity-specific fruit juice concentrates. Instead, the recent opportunities indexed under this code reflect broader food service and nutrition procurement — school nutrition programs, state facility food service contracts, and child care meal programs — that source shelf-stable and refrigerated beverages, dairy products, fresh produce, and packaged foods as part of comprehensive food-supply contracts. The code's abstract scope does not align with the actual work being bought in current postings, which emphasize meal service delivery across multiple categories rather than single-ingredient concentrate products.

State and local buyers posting under this code span school districts (Bridgeport Board of Education, Burke County Public Schools, Hancock County Board of Education, Pinellas County School District), county nutrition programs (Gwinnett County Department of Community Services), state departments (Georgia Department of Education, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), municipal food services (City of Edinburg, Illinois Department of Mental Health), and specialized facilities (Texas state-supported living centers and juvenile justice facilities). Activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, and Florida, with recent opportunities posted between May and October 2026. Representative recent procurement includes Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 (informal written quotes, due 19 October 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for community services; Georgia Department of Education RFP 9060_1005_211 (due 2 November 2026) for Smart Snacks-compliant beverages across multiple school locations; and Pinellas County School District's solicitation 26JG021 (due 11 June 2026) for milk, dairy, and juice products across approximately 117 facilities valued at approximately $22.5 million over the initial two-year term. The code shows little focused activity in blackberry concentrate procurement itself.
