UNSPSC 50383604 Leveller gooseberry purees (Commodity) has limited recent relevance to state and local procurement activity; the code's name does not align with current solicitation patterns. Recent opportunities posted under this code span canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and broad food-service categories for correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and state-supported living centers. The issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office), school districts (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Hancock County Board of Education, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), and one municipal nutrition center (City of Bridgeport Board of Education). School districts emerge as the dominant repeat buyers, with multiple districts procuring annual food contracts across 2026. Food service procurement spans fresh and frozen fruits, vegetables, proteins, dairy, grains, condiments, and consumable supplies delivered to central warehouses, school kitchens, and dining facilities on firm-fixed-price, FOB destination terms.

Activity concentrates in the Southeast and Southwest, with recent solicitations from Oregon, Texas (multiple agencies and districts), Illinois, Georgia (four school districts), Connecticut, and Missouri. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 (posted July 10, 2026, due July 31, 2026) for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at $21.84 per case historical pricing under a 10% combined Oregon-goods and resident-bidder preference; Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 (posted June 26, 2026, due July 16, 2026) for dried fruit bars and apple crisps for food service; and Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 (posted June 10, 2026, due June 26, 2026) for over 200 line items of fresh produce spanning multiple varieties with three-location delivery and a firm contract period through June 30, 2027.
