UNSPSC 50382501: Bog bilberry purees

The variety of billberries known as bog bilberries which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50382501 Bog bilberry purees is a Commodity code that does not see relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The source records nine recent solicitations under this code, but none request bog bilberry purees or any product resembling this narrow commodity specification. The opportunities instead reflect state and local food service procurement across shelf-stable pantry staples (peanut butter, canned proteins, rice, pasta), fresh and frozen produce (apples, berries, carrots, potatoes, melons), canned applesauce, dried fruit bars and apple crisps, and comprehensive food and consumables for institutional dining — departments of corrections, veterans homes, schools, health and human services facilities, and county nutrition programs. The mismatch between the code designation and the actual scope of work being solicited suggests either a taxonomy error in how opportunities were tagged or that bog bilberry purees fall outside current state and local government procurement demand.

Issuing bodies across the opportunities span state departments (Illinois, Oregon, Texas, Georgia), counties (Gwinnett in Georgia, Hancock in Georgia), cities (Bridgeport, Connecticut; Austin, Texas), school districts (Austin ISD, Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Schools), and specialized state agencies (Department of Corrections in Oregon and Texas, HHSC in Texas). Recent activity concentrated in the Southeast (Georgia, Connecticut) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon) with significant Texas procurement (TDCJ, HHSC) and Illinois (Veterans Home at Quincy). Representative opportunities include Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned applesauce (June 2026, ITB S-29100-00017453, approximately 4,760 cases, historical award at $21.84 per case), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IFB for shelf-stable food items (October 2026, approximately 1,062 cases across 35 line items, due October 19, 2026), and Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumables IFB (May 2026, 210 line items, $4.5 million potential value over three years). No recent opportunity directly names bog bilberry purees.
