UNSPSC 50382037: Patterson apricot purees

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

UNSPSC 50382037 Patterson apricot purees (Commodity) does not map to the recent state and local procurement activity in the source record. The twelve recent opportunities solicited under this code span canned applesauce and dried fruit bars from the Oregon Department of Corrections and Austin Independent School District, supplemental food and consumable products statewide from the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Illinois State, fresh produce for multiple school districts and state facilities across Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut, and main-line food service distribution for school nutrition programs. None of these solicitations specifically names apricot purees as a line item or product category. The code's nominal scope (Patterson apricot purees) appears to diverge substantially from the goods actually being purchased under it in current state and local contracting.

The issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas HHSC, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Department of Criminal Justice), county and district school systems (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Muscogee County in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia, Douglas County in Georgia, Austin Independent School District in Texas, Dallas Independent School District in Texas, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia), municipal school food services (Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center in Connecticut), and regional consortia (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts). Recent activity concentrates in Georgia (seven opportunities), Texas (five opportunities), with additional opportunities in Oregon, Connecticut, Missouri, Virginia, and Illinois. Representative solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with bids due July 31, 2026; the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center with proposals due July 13, 2026; the Hancock County Board of Education IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items with bids due June 26, 2026; and the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-003 for food supply and distribution services serving 25,500 students with an estimated annual value of approximately $9 million and proposals due February 18, 2026. Code activity does not support current pursuit under the stated UNSPSC designation.
