UNSPSC 50383510: Verdona fig purees

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

UNSPSC 50383510 Verdona fig purees is a Commodity code that sees limited direct activity in state and local procurement, as the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations specifically for fig purees. The opportunities tagged under this code instead reflect broader food service procurement by state agencies, school districts, and institutional buyers — particularly canned and fresh fruit products, prepared foods, and comprehensive grocery supply contracts serving detention facilities, state-supported living centers, school nutrition programs, and higher-education food service operations. When state and local buyers do source fruit products under related commodity codes, they prioritize USDA compliance, domestic content requirements (typically Buy American provisions requiring 51 percent domestic ingredients for processed goods), firm fixed pricing, and delivery to centralized warehouses or distributed school and institutional sites.

State and local procurement of fruit-based products spans multiple issuing-body types: the Oregon Department of Corrections (canned applesauce via ITB), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and supported living centers via IFB), multiple independent school districts including Austin ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Dallas ISD, Douglas County Schools, and others (via RFP or IFB for grocery and produce supply), county school systems in Georgia including Hancock County Board of Education, Muscogee County, and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (via IFB for fresh produce), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (cafeteria food via IFB), and specialty state facilities including the Illinois Chief Procurement Office (quarterly food orders). Geographic concentration appears highest in Georgia and Texas, with significant activity also in Missouri, Oregon, and Connecticut. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026, historical price $21.84 per case), the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, prior-period value $1.5 million), Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce spanning 200 line items across multiple fruit and vegetable categories (due June 26, 2026), and the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts (estimated annual spending $4.4 million for Area One, sealed proposals due March 4, 2026). These opportunities consistently require domestic sourcing compliance, insurance coverage between $1 million and $2 million in liability limits, and firm fixed pricing for contract terms typically running July through June within school-year cycles or full fiscal years.
