The variety of bananas known as dominico bananas which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50382105 Dominico banana purees is a Commodity code that in practice encompasses a far broader range of fruit and vegetable food products than the code name suggests—school districts, correctional facilities, health and human services agencies, and other state and local bodies are procuring canned fruit applesauces, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, eggs, prepared entrees, and miscellaneous grocery staples under this classification. State and local issuing bodies include school districts (Austin ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Douglas County Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County Schools, Hancock County Schools), corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office), and municipal purchasing offices (City of Bridgeport). The work being solicited ranges from large annual grocery and produce contracts for school nutrition programs spanning hundreds of line items and millions of dollars in estimated value to smaller canned-goods procurements for state facilities; recent examples include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumables IFB for state hospitals and supported living centers (estimated value $4.5 million over three years, 210 line items, due February 23, 2026), Dallas Independent School District's RFP for specialty food products not available through main commodity bids (contract period May 29, 2026–May 28, 2027), and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB establishing grocery supply and delivery to 45 schools plus seven distribution kitchens (bid due April 27, 2026, contract July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027, with four optional one-year renewals).

Geographic activity clusters heavily in Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, DISD, and multiple school districts), Georgia (Douglas County Schools, Liberty County Schools, Muscogee County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Hancock County Schools), and other states with active school nutrition and institutional food service procurement (Oregon, Illinois, Connecticut, Missouri, Virginia). Representative recent opportunities demonstrate the code's scope: the Oregon Department of Corrections posted ITB S-29100-00017453 on July 10, 2026, for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with delivery to Salem (bid due July 31, 2026), offering a combined 10 percent preference for Oregon-fabricated goods and Oregon-headquartered bidders; Austin Independent School District posted RFP 27RFP004 on June 26, 2026, for dried fruit bars and apple crisps for food service (proposal due July 16, 2026); and Douglas County Schools issued RFP 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative on February 4, 2026, for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts in two Georgia areas with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two (proposal due March 4, 2026). Contracts typically require firm fixed pricing, compliance with Buy American provisions (51 percent domestic content for processed products), USDA or equivalent commodity specifications, commercial general liability insurance ranging from $1 million to $2 million per occurrence, and FOB destination delivery with all transportation prepaid. Payment terms are commonly Net 30 to Net 45 days, and school nutrition contracts often include automatic renewal options for two to four additional one-year terms at the district's discretion.
