UNSPSC 50383315: Yatimeh date purees

The variety of dates known as yatimeh dates which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50383315 Yatimeh date purees is a Commodity code that sits at the lowest tier of the taxonomy, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it show no activity in date purees whatsoever. Instead, the code captures a broad and active range of food service procurement across school districts, state agencies, correctional facilities, and supported living centers — spanning canned and dried fruit products, fresh produce, commodity foods, and food service supplies. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include school districts (Dallas ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Liberty County Board of Education, Douglas County School System), state departments and agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, State of Georgia), and special-purpose districts (Austin Independent School District). School nutrition programs and food service operations represent the dominant activity, with multiple districts conducting annual or multi-year procurements for grocery items, fresh produce, canned fruits, and prepared foods to support meal programs serving thousands of students.

Recent opportunities span Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Illinois. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (posted July 10, 2026, due July 31, 2026), which applies a combined 5% Oregon goods preference and 5% state-headquartered-bidder preference for a total of 10%; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0016792 for supplemental food and consumable products across 210 line items for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (maximum potential value $4,500,000 over three years); and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 products delivered to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens across the 2026-27 contract year. Most food service solicitations impose Buy American or domestic-content requirements (51% minimum domestic agricultural commodity content for processed products), mandate firm fixed pricing for the contract period, require FOB destination delivery, and involve weekly or on-demand fulfillment to multiple school or facility locations. School districts commonly reserve the right to award to single or multiple vendors on a line-item basis and evaluate on lowest responsive bid or best value. State agencies frequently include prevailing wage certifications, E-Verify compliance, debarment verification, and insurance requirements (typically $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 general commercial liability). This code, despite its narrow nominal scope, reflects active and recurring demand across state and local food service operations with multi-million-dollar contract values and predictable annual or biennial solicitation cycles.
