UNSPSC 50381911: Codlin apple purees

The variety of apples known as codlin apples which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50381911 Codlin apple purees, a Commodity code, covers canned and processed apple products—applesauce, fruit purees, and related prepared items—that state and local governments procure for institutional food service, particularly school districts, correctional facilities, and state health and human services agencies. Recent solicitations show demand for canned applesauce in bulk quantities (typically 900–4,760 cases per order), dried fruit bars and apple crisps for school cafeterias, and applesauce as a component of broader food and consumable product bids serving state hospitals and supported living centers. School districts and state corrections and health agencies dominate the issuing-body mix, with independent school districts (Austin ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Fairfax County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office), and county school systems appearing most frequently in recent opportunities. Oregon and Texas account for the most visible recent activity, followed by Georgia, Illinois, Connecticut, and Missouri; the code shows distributed but steady procurement across state and local jurisdictions nationwide.

Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (sweetened or unsweetened, smooth or chunky, packed in juice, water, or light syrup) with sealed bids due July 31, 2026, deliverable in five full truckloads to the Central Distribution Center in Salem—Oregon applies a combined 10 percent preference (5 percent for Oregon-fabricated goods and 5 percent for Oregon-headquartered bidders), and the historical price was $21.84 per case awarded to Robbins Sales in June 2026. Austin Independent School District's RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps, due July 16, 2026, seeks delivery to the district's central warehouse under Texas Education Code Section 44.031(3). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0016792 (and its revised version HHS0016792V2, response deadline March 19, 2026) procures supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide, encompassing applesauce and related items among 210 line items across Texas facilities, with a maximum potential contract value of $4.5 million over three years. Activity is concentrated in spring and early summer solicitations driven by school-year procurement cycles (July start dates common) and state institutional feeding operations; pricing is typically FOB destination, firm fixed for the contract period, and includes transportation and delivery charges. Buy American provisions apply across most school district procurements (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products); insurance requirements range from $1 million to $2 million general liability. Award is frequently made on lowest responsive and responsible bid; some jurisdictions reserve the right to award to single or multiple vendors and may evaluate on best value beyond price alone.
