UNSPSC 50382023: Honeycot apricot purees

The variety of apricots known as honeycot apricots which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50382023 Honeycot apricot purees, a Commodity code, sits within food procurement activity that state and local governments buy primarily as ingredient supply for institutional food service — school cafeterias, corrections facilities, veterans homes, senior services, and state health agencies. Recent solicitations show the code in use for shelf-stable food products destined for bulk quantity and multi-location delivery. Issuing bodies span school districts (Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education), county departments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and city boards of education (City of Bridgeport Board of Education). These buyers solicit on an annual or quarterly cycle, often splitting awards by line item or vendor when quantities and delivery logistics support it. Food service procurements at this tier emphasize firm fixed pricing, compliance with USDA commodity specifications, Buy American / domestic-content preferences where applicable under the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act, and delivery to central distribution centers or multiple institutional sites on FOB Destination terms with inside delivery required.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, Oregon, Texas, Illinois, and Connecticut. The Oregon Department of Corrections posted two separate ITBs for canned applesauce (S2910000017453 due July 31, 2026, and S2910000016975 due June 2, 2026), each for approximately 1,900–4,760 cases delivered to Salem with a 5% Oregon goods and 5% resident-bidder preference stacked for a combined 10% advantage. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an informal written quote (IWQ 140229) due October 19, 2026, for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable foods including canned products with F.O.B. Destination delivery to Lawrenceville by December 7, 2026. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office has posted multiple quarterly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (brand-specific and brand-or-equal variants). Texas HHSC and TDCJ procure food and consumables for state hospitals, corrections, and supported living centers across multiple line items and delivery points, with historical values reaching $4.5 million (HHSC) and $1.5 million (single facility). School districts including Hancock County and Austin ISD solicit fresh and processed produce annually for the school year under Buy American provisions and multiple-location delivery. Response cycles are tight — most RFQs and ITBs close within two to six weeks of posting — and awards often go to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder on a per-unit-cost basis, with delivery timelines of 30–72 hours or longer lead times depending on order cycle and facility needs.
