UNSPSC 50382415: Youngberry purees

The variety of blackberries known as youngberries which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50382415 Youngberry purees is a Commodity code that sees little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope. State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily school districts, state agencies, and county boards of education procuring food service products for child nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and state-supported living centers. However, the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations specifically for youngberry purees. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span canned applesauce (Oregon Department of Corrections), dried fruit bars and apple crisps (Austin Independent School District), fresh produce including apples, berries, and vegetables (multiple Georgia school districts and cooperative purchasing vehicles), and broad food commodity categories for institutional food service. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope—youngberry purees as a single ingredient or product line—and the actual work being solicited suggests either classifier error in the state and local procurement databases or that youngberry purees occupy a negligible share of food service procurement activity under this taxonomy.

The geographic spread of food service procurement in this block spans Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Connecticut, Missouri, and Illinois, with school districts and state corrections or health agencies as the predominant issuing bodies. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (approximately 4,760 cases at a historical price of $21.84 per case, due July 31, 2026), the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia districts (estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One, due March 4, 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0016792 for supplemental food and consumables statewide (210 line items, up to $4.5 million over three years, due June 23, 2026). The code shows robust activity in canned and fresh fruit procurement for institutional food service, but no current opportunities explicitly call for youngberry purees as a line item or focus area.
