UNSPSC 50382919: Santina cherry purees

The variety of cherries known as santina cherries which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50382919 Santina cherry purees is a Commodity code that describes a single branded fruit preserve product, yet state and local procurement records show the code being applied to a wide range of fruit products — canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and mixed food service commodities — bearing little relationship to the narrow product name. The disconnect between the code's nominal scope and actual buying activity reflects inconsistent tagging in state purchasing systems rather than a coherent procurement category. School districts, state corrections departments, state health and human services agencies, and local boards of education do solicit canned and processed fruit products regularly, but these solicitations are tagged across multiple UNSPSC codes depending on the state's classification practices, making this specific Commodity code an unreliable guide to market opportunity.

Recent activity spans Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two separate ITBs for canned fruit applesauce (S2910000017453, due July 31, 2026, and S2910000016975, due June 2, 2026), specifying USDA 2011 commodity specifications and historical pricing around $21.84 per case. Multiple school districts — Austin Independent School District (RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps, due July 16, 2026), Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri (April 29, 2026 bid deadline for grocery items spanning 900+ line items), and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia (Bid 26-34 for 72 fresh produce items, due April 23, 2026) — solicit fruit and produce as part of broader nutrition programs. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office and Texas Health and Human Services Commission also issued quarterly and annual food supply bids with fruit products embedded within larger commodity solicitations. The code shows no concentrated activity: issuing bodies are geographically dispersed and include state purchasing offices, corrections departments, health and human services commissions, and multiple independent school districts with no repeat buyers under this specific UNSPSC number. The recent opportunities block contains no evidence that this Commodity code is the primary or preferred tag for fruit product procurement in any jurisdiction, suggesting low strategic value for business development purposes.
