UNSPSC 50382931: Royal cherry purees

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

UNSPSC 50382931 Royal cherry purees (Commodity) shows minimal recent activity directly aligned with the code's nominal scope. The recent opportunities block contains sixteen solicitations, none of which specifically name cherry purees or closely related juice-based fruit products. Instead, state and local governments have recently posted opportunities for canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus), eggs, general food supply and consumables for institutional food service, and specialty items for school nutrition and state facility kitchens. The mismatch between the code name and the work actually being procured suggests either a tagging error in the source data or that cherry purees represent a negligible slice of state and local food procurement.

The issuing bodies in the recent-opportunities block—school districts (Austin ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Savannah-Chatham County, Dallas ISD, Douglas County Schools, Hancock County Schools), state procurement offices (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), and county systems (Muscogee County, Liberty County)—procure food products across all three institutional channels: K-12 school nutrition, corrections and state-facility food service, and central warehouse distribution. Geographic activity spans Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (due July 31, 2026) and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide to support 23 state facilities, with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years. Given the code's apparent disconnect from current procurement activity, firms pursuing cherry-puree supply should verify that their product category aligns with actual state and local food-service demand before building business development resources around this code.
