UNSPSC 50382919: Santina cherry purees

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

UNSPSC 50382919 Santina cherry purees (Commodity) reflects minimal direct procurement activity for this specific product in recent state and local opportunities. The code nominally describes a narrow food commodity — canned or processed cherry purees — yet the available solicitations show state and local governments buying a broad spectrum of shelf-stable and fresh food products for institutional food service, with no opportunities explicitly requesting santina cherry purees by name or varietal specification. The issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), county boards (Gwinnett County, Hancock County), cities (Bridgeport), school districts (Austin ISD), and state-supported living centers, each procuring food items through IFB, ITB, RFP, and informal quotation notices. Food-service procurement at this level emphasizes broad-basket buys of proteins, produce, dairy, grains, and shelf-stable items at firm fixed pricing, with compliance to USDA commodity standards, Buy American provisions where applicable, and delivery to central warehouses or facility distribution centers.

Recent opportunities show heaviest activity in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, and Connecticut, with recurring buys at Texas HHSC facilities (three solicitations spanning $1.5 million to $4.5 million contract values), Oregon Department of Corrections canned applesauce procurements (two ITBs in May and July 2026 for approximately 1,904 and 4,760 cases respectively at historical prices near $21.83 per case), Illinois Veterans Home Quincy weekly food orders (multiple quarterly procurements June through September 2026), and school district fresh-produce buys. Representative opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' October 2026 informal quotation for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026; Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026, with 5% domestic processing and 5% Oregon-headquarters preferences; Austin ISD RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; and Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center due July 11, 2026, with historical value of $1.5 million. The code shows no current demand specifically for santina cherry purees and should be pursued only if a vendor can serve the broader institutional food-service market through approved-equivalent or cross-category positioning.
