UNSPSC 50383505: Dottado fig purees

The variety of figs known as dottado figs which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50383505 Dottado fig purees (Commodity) represents a narrow category that state and local governments rarely procure as a standalone commodity, as evidenced by the recent opportunities in the source block. None of the 19 listed state and local solicitations actually seek fig purees; instead, issuing bodies are acquiring applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and other mainstream food products for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state-supported living centers. The code's nominal scope does not align with actual purchasing activity under this UNSPSC designation in current state and local markets.

Issuing bodies sourcing food products more broadly—school districts, state departments of corrections, state health and human services commissions, and county boards of education—dominate the recent opportunities, with school districts appearing repeatedly (Austin Independent School District, Dallas Independent School District, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Douglas County School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Muscogee County School District). Geographic spread spans Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia, with particularly heavy activity in Georgia and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' canned applesauce ITB (S2910000017453) due July 31, 2026, and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumables IFB (HHS0016792) with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years. Bidders pursuing this code should note that fig purees appear absent from current state and local procurement activity; vendors in fruit products, preserves, or specialty food items would be better served targeting broader food product codes under segments 50 (Produce, Seeds, and Plants Products) or 55 (Food Products) where school nutrition, corrections, and institutional feeding solicitations cluster.
