UNSPSC 50383400: Dragonfruit purees

The variety of dragonfruit known as dragonfruit which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50383400 Dragonfruit purees is a Class code that represents state and local procurement of canned and fresh fruit products for institutional food service, though recent activity under this code shows minimal alignment with dragonfruit specifically. Instead, state and local buyers are procuring canned applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit bars, and supplemental food products for corrections facilities, schools, health and human services agencies, and state hospitals. School districts and state departments dominate the issuing-body mix, with corrections agencies and HHS facilities appearing as secondary but repeat buyers. The Oregon Department of Corrections has posted multiple applesauce solicitations (ITB S-29100-00017453 in July 2026 and prior awards), while the Texas Health and Human Services Commission has issued recurring supplemental food procurements (HHS0016792 versions in February and May 2026). School nutrition programs are the largest segment, with districts in Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia issuing IFBs and RFPs for fresh produce, grocery items, and food service products at the district and cooperative-purchasing scales.

Geographic activity centers on the South and Southwest—Texas, Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia show the densest recent solicitation activity—with secondary presence in Oregon, Connecticut, and Illinois. Recent representative solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 (canned applesauce, bids due July 31, 2026) with a historical award value of approximately $104,000 for 4,760 cases; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0016792V2 for supplemental food and consumables statewide (maximum potential value $4.5 million over three years, questions and bids due March 2026); the Douglas County School System's RFP SN26-003 for food supply and distribution services with an estimated annual expenditure of $9 million (proposals due February 18, 2026); and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 (bids due April 27, 2026) serving 45 schools plus distribution kitchens. Most school and institutional procurements use fixed-price delivery models with Buy American provisions, USDA commodity compliance, and firm pricing for the contract period, typically one year renewable for multiple terms.
