UNSPSC 50383701: Burgundy grapefruit purees

The variety of grapefruit known as burgundy grapefruit which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50383701 Burgundy grapefruit purees is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to classify procurements of specialty fruit products for institutional food service, though recent state and local opportunities show little activity directly targeting burgundy grapefruit purees specifically. The code sits within a broader institutional food-service market where state correctional facilities, health and human services agencies, school districts, county governments, and municipal nutrition programs routinely purchase shelf-stable and fresh produce in volume. Recent opportunities under adjacent commodity codes reveal that issuing bodies solicit dried fruit bars, applesauce, fresh produce, and mixed food commodities through formal competitive methods—IFBs, RFPs, and ITBs—with pricing evaluated on a unit-cost basis and awards typically made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder or on best-value grounds. Issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas HHSC, Texas TDCJ, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Georgia, Texas Comptroller), county boards of education (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Gwinnett County in Georgia), municipal school districts (Austin ISD), city governments (Bridgeport, Connecticut), and special-purpose health districts.

The geographic spread of recent food-service procurement activity spans Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, and Connecticut, with Texas and Georgia showing the highest frequency of solicitations in the recent six-month window. Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned applesauce (approximately 4,760 cases, bids due July 31, 2026, historical award at $21.84 per case to Robbins Sales), Texas HHSC's IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide to state hospitals and supported living centers (210 line items, maximum potential contract value $4.5 million over three years, bids due March 19, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items including apples, berries, and citrus (bids due June 26, 2026), the City of Bridgeport's IFB for commodities to supply the Board of Education Nutrition Center (115 line items including eggs, poultry, cheese, and fruit products, submissions due June 26, 2026), and Gwinnett County's informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (quotes due October 19, 2026). Buy American provisions and domestic-content preferences appear in multiple school-district and municipal procurements, and state preferences (Oregon's 10% combined preference for in-state processing and residency) are present where applicable. No recent opportunities specifically name burgundy grapefruit purees in the available records.
