UNSPSC 50202510: Blueberry juice

UNSPSC 50202510 Blueberry juice is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of juice beverages for institutional food service, particularly within school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and health and human services operations. Recent solicitations show blueberry juice itself appearing minimally in specific line items, but the code sits within a broader family of juice procurement activity spanning fresh, frozen, refrigerated, and shelf-stable juice products in multiple formats. State and local issuing bodies pursuing activity under this code include school districts (independent, county, and regional), state health and human services agencies, correctional departments, and municipal school boards, with school nutrition programs and institutional food service representing the dominant use case.

Recent opportunities span Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Missouri, and Florida, with the highest concentration in school district nutrition contracts and state-level institutional food service. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Edinburg, Texas Child and Adult Care Food Program (RFP 2026-017, due August 4, 2026), which solicits beverages including 100% fruit juice as one of five supply categories for approximately 400 children daily; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (IFB HHS0017418, due July 15, 2026) for dairy products and juices statewide to 20 facilities with historical annual value of $1.6 million; the Pinellas County School District (IFB 26JG021, due June 11, 2026) for milk, dairy, and juice products across 117 facilities with contract value of approximately $22.5 million over two years; and the Bridgeport Board of Education (IFB BNB052266, due June 30, 2026) for grocery items including beverages under Buy American requirements. Juice procurement appears as a secondary item in multi-category food-service bids rather than standalone solicitations; when juice is specified, evaluation typically emphasizes compliance with USDA nutrition standards, Buy American domestic-content thresholds (minimum 51 percent for processed products), and firm fixed pricing with transportation included.
