UNSPSC 50381932: Gold supreme apple purees

The variety of apples known as gold supreme apples which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50381932 Gold supreme apple purees (Commodity) covers canned and processed apple products sourced by state and local food service operations, including departments of corrections, school nutrition programs, health and human services facilities, and institutional food service operators. State and local buyers procure applesauce, apple crisps, dried fruit bars, and supplemental fruit products under this code to support inmate meals, student nutrition programs, and residential facility dining operations. Issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office), school districts (Austin Independent School District, Dallas Independent School District, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), municipal education agencies (Bridgeport Board of Education), and special-purpose districts. School districts appear as the dominant category of recent buyers under this code, with multiple concurrent procurements across the 2026-27 cycle; Texas state agencies (HHSC, DSHS, Comptroller on behalf of TDCJ) also show material repeat activity.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and South-Central regions, with standing procurements posted from Georgia (Hancock County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County), Texas (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, HHSC, DSHS, TDCJ), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Illinois (Chief Procurement Office), Connecticut (Bridgeport), and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI). The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce due July 31, 2026, targeting 4,760 cases delivered to Salem with a 5% Oregon-goods preference and 5% Oregon-headquarters preference (combined 10% total), with historical pricing at $21.84 per case. Austin Independent School District solicited proposals under RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026, for direct warehouse delivery. Texas HHSC issued IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products including processed fruit items serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center, with responses due July 13, 2026, and a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million; the same agency previously posted IFB HHS0016792 and its amended version HHS0016792V2 targeting supplemental food and consumable products for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide with a maximum potential value of $4,500,000 over three years and responses due in February and March 2026. School district procurements tend to specify apple varieties (Fuji, Gala, Granny Smith, Honey Crisp, Jazz) and apple products within broader fresh-produce and grocery bids, often requiring USDA compliance, Buy American provisions (51% domestic content for processed items), and firm fixed pricing for 12-month contract periods with delivery to multiple school sites.
