UNSPSC 50381939: Honeycrisp apple purees

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

UNSPSC 50381939 Honeycrisp apple purees, a Commodity code, encompasses canned and processed apple products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service, primarily school nutrition programs and correctional facilities. The sourced opportunities reveal that government buyers actually solicit canned applesauce, dried apple crisps, and fresh apple varieties (Honeycrisp among them) rather than purees specifically—indicating that the code captures a broader range of apple-based food products than its nominal name suggests. The issuing-body mix spans school districts (Austin ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Fairfax County Public Schools, Hancock County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Dallas ISD), state correctional departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Georgia, State of Illinois), and municipal education departments (City of Bridgeport Board of Education). School nutrition programs dominate the activity, with five or more recent solicitations naming them as primary end-users; state institutional feeding (prisons, state supported living centers, state hospitals) appears as a secondary but significant use case.

Geographic concentration centers on the South and Mid-Atlantic (Georgia, Texas, Florida, Missouri, Connecticut, Virginia) with material activity in the Pacific Northwest (Oregon). Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing ITB S-29100-00017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026, with a historical price of $21.84 per case and Oregon goods fabrication and residency preferences totaling 10 percent; Austin Independent School District issuing RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; Hancock County Board of Education soliciting fresh produce including Honeycrisp apples for the 2026-27 school year under IFB #SN002-2027 due June 26, 2026, with over 200 line items spanning multiple apple varieties and Buy American requirements; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products with a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million and contract term beginning September 1, 2026. Pricing structures typically employ firm fixed unit rates, with delivery FOB destination prepaid and shelf-life minimums of one year or greater. Buy American provisions requiring 51 percent domestic content in processed products appear across school district solicitations, and liability insurance minimums of $1 million per occurrence are standard.
