UNSPSC 50383813: Black globe grape purees

The variety of table grapes known as black globe grapes which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50383813 Black globe grape purees is a Commodity code, and the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not reflect purchase of black globe grape purees specifically. Instead, the opportunities show broad food procurement for institutional food service — school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, senior services, and state hospitals — spanning shelf-stable proteins, produce, dairy, bakery items, beverages, and consumables. The issuing bodies include county boards of education, state departments of corrections and health services, school districts, county commissioners' offices, and municipal food service departments. These jurisdictions procure food through IFB, IWQ (informal written quote), and RFP vehicles, typically with firm fixed pricing, FOB destination delivery, and compliance requirements for USDA grades, FDA standards, and Buy American provisions where school meals are involved.

Geographically, recent activity clusters in Georgia (Gwinnett County schools, Hancock County schools, State of Georgia), Texas (Austin ISD, HHSC El Paso facility, TDCJ statewide), Illinois (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), Oregon (ODOC statewide), and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport). Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County's informal written quote for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's brand-or-equal weekly food orders for Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (due August 24, 2026); Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026, at $21.84 per case historically; Austin Independent School District's RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; and the Texas HHSC's IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide (due March 19, 2026, with a potential three-year value of $4.5 million). Procurement cycles run quarterly to annually, with most contracts firm-priced for initial terms and renewal options available at HHSC and TDCJ facilities. The code shows no targeted activity in black globe grape purees specifically; the miscoding likely reflects a broader institutional food categorization in the source system.
