UNSPSC 50383110: Stevens cranberry purees

The variety of cranberries known as stevens cranberries which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50383110 Stevens cranberry purees is a Commodity code representing processed fruit products, though recent state and local solicitations under this code do not focus specifically on cranberry purees but instead reflect broader institutional food procurement spanning canned fruits, dried fruits, applesauce, and supplemental food and consumable supplies. State and local governments buy processed and fresh produce items under this code to support school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, state-supported living centers, veterans homes, senior services, and institutional food service operations. The issuing bodies include school districts (Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education, City of Bridgeport Board of Education), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Illinois), county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Hancock County Board of Education), and municipalities. Procurement approaches range from IFBs and ITBs for commodity-level purchases with fixed unit pricing to RFPs for multi-item food service contracts, with delivery typically FOB destination and pricing evaluated on per-unit or per-case basis.

Recent opportunities span multiple regions with notable concentration in the South and West. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two ITBs for canned fruit applesauce (May 18, 2026, due June 2, and July 10, 2026, due July 31, with historical pricing at approximately $21.83 per case and a 10 percent combined Oregon-resident and Oregon-fabricated-goods preference applied). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Department of State Health Services solicited supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and living centers statewide (May 19, 2026 IFB with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years and delivery within seven days of order). Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, and canned vegetables for senior services, due October 19, 2026. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office issued multiple quarterly weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy on both brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications (August 19, 2026 proposals). The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts issued an IFB for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products to supply TDCJ facilities across five geographic areas (May 4, 2026, extended response deadline with a 1.5 percent SmartBuy administrative fee). Buy American and domestic-content preferences appear regularly, particularly in school nutrition procurements (51 percent domestic-ingredient threshold in Connecticut and elsewhere), and prevailing wage and insurance requirements are standard across state-level solicitations.
