UNSPSC 50382615: Toro blueberry purees

The variety of blueberries known as toro blueberries which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50382615 Toro blueberry purees is a Commodity code that in practice captures state and local procurement of preserved fruit products — canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and supplemental food items for institutional food service. The code appears nominally targeted at blueberry purée but the recent solicitations show state and local buyers actually purchasing a broader category of canned and processed fruit, fresh produce, and food service supplies across school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, state hospitals, and state-supported living centers. Issuing bodies span school districts (Fairfax County, Austin ISD, Hancock County, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Dallas ISD, Douglas County), state departments of corrections and health and human services (Oregon DOC, Texas HHSC, Texas TDCJ, Georgia Department of Education), and city government (Bridgeport). School districts dominate the recent activity, with multiple concurrent procurements for fresh produce, grocery items, and nutrition program supplies; corrections and health agencies constitute a secondary but substantial stream.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and Southwest. Georgia appears most active with five recent school district solicitations (Hancock County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County), all posted between February and June 2026. Texas shows comparable intensity across school districts (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD), state health agencies (HHSC), and corrections (TDCJ), with opportunities posted from February through June 2026. Oregon Department of Corrections issued two fruit applesauce ITBs (February and May 2026, bids due early June and early July), and Connecticut's Bridgeport schools issued a commodities RFQ in June 2026. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, bids due July 31, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at El Paso State Supported Living Center (estimated $1.5 million annual spend, bids due July 13, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 across 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens (sealed bids due April 27, 2026, contract period July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027).
