UNSPSC 50383500: Fig purees

The type of fruit known as figs which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50383500 Fig purees, a Class code, shows substantial recent activity driven by school districts and state agencies procuring canned and processed fruit products—applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and broader food-service commodities—for child nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state institutional food service. The opportunities reflect heavy demand from K–12 school nutrition operations, state health and human services agencies, and correctional systems, with pricing typically submitted as firm fixed unit rates on a cost-plus or per-unit basis, delivery consolidated to central warehouses or distributed across multiple school sites, and compliance required with USDA commodity specifications, Buy American provisions, and FDA/USDA food-safety standards.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, Connecticut, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S-29100-00017453 on July 10, 2026, with bids due July 31, 2026, for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at an estimated $21.84 per case; Austin Independent School District solicited dried fruit bars and apple crisps under RFP 27RFP004 due July 16, 2026; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission procured supplemental food and consumables statewide under IFB HHS0017449 with a historical value of $1.5 million and proposals due July 13, 2026. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office solicited quarterly weekly food orders with brand-specific requirements due June 17, 2026. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix—Hancock County Board of Education, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Douglas County School System (Georgia), and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System—alongside state agencies including Oregon DOC, Texas HHSC, and Illinois CPO. Evaluation typically awards on lowest responsive bid or best value, with contracts renewable for one to four additional one-year terms, firm pricing for the initial term, and midterm price adjustments permitted only where manufacturers increase costs by 5 percent or greater with supporting documentation.
