UNSPSC 50382906: Black schmidt cherry purees

The variety of cherries known as black schmidt cherries which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50382906 Black Schmidt cherry purees is a Commodity code used by state and local food service buyers, though the recent solicitations show the code tags a broad range of shelf-stable and fresh fruit products rather than cherry purees specifically. State and local governments buying under this code procure canned and packaged fruits, fresh produce, and processed fruit items for school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, senior services, state hospitals, and supported living centers. The mix of issuing bodies reflects the diversity of public food service operations: school districts, state departments of corrections and health and human services, county boards of education and commissioners, independent school districts, and cities. Scope spans canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce (apples, berries, melons, citrus), and bulk commodity food items delivered to central warehouses or facility kitchens. Delivery terms are FOB destination with prepaid freight, and awards typically go to lowest responsive and responsible bidders on a per-unit or per-case basis, though some jurisdictions reserve the right to make multiple awards or split line items.

The code shows activity across Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, Connecticut, and Arizona. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing an ITB for approximately 1,904 cases of canned fruit applesauce due June 2, 2026, with a historical price of $21.827 per case; Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia requesting bids on over 200 line items of fresh produce for the 2026-27 school year due June 26, 2026, with delivery to three school locations; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing an IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide (210 line items, $4.5 million potential value over three years, due March 19, 2026); the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issuing an IFB for cafeteria food products across five geographic warehouse areas (382 line items, due May 4, 2026); the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office requesting weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (multiple quarters, brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications, due August 24, 2026); and Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia requesting informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026.
