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

UNSPSC 50381925 Fuji apple purees (Commodity) encompasses canned and processed apple products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service, particularly school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and health and human services agencies. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers sourcing both shelf-stable canned applesauce and fresh-equivalent processed products—dried fruit bars, apple crisps, and fresh produce including Fuji apple varieties—for meal programs serving student populations, incarcerated individuals, and residents of state-supported living centers. The issuing-body mix spans state departments of corrections, independent school districts, county school boards, state health and human services commissions, and cooperative purchasing organizations serving multi-district consortia. Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) have posted recent opportunities under or adjacent to this code, with school districts representing the dominant buyer segment given the frequency and scale of child nutrition procurement.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and South, with recent solicitations from Georgia (Hancock County, Savannah-Chatham County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Douglas County), Texas (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, HHSC, TDCJ), and Missouri (Rockwood), alongside activity in Oregon (Department of Corrections), Virginia (Fairfax County), and Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education). The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S-29100-00017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with delivery to Salem, Oregon, bids due July 31, 2026, under a 10 percent combined Oregon goods and resident-bidder preference; the historical award to Robbins Sales was $21.84 per case.

Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) solicited over 200 fresh produce line items including multiple Fuji apple varieties, sealed bids due June 26, 2026, with delivery to three school locations across the 2026-27 contract year. These opportunities reflect sustained, recurring demand from institutional food service operations with firm-fixed pricing, FOB destination delivery terms, Buy American compliance requirements where applicable, and multi-year contract structures with renewal options typical of school district procurement cycles.
