UNSPSC 50383898: Burgundy grape purees

The variety of wine grapes known as burgundy grapes. which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50383898 Burgundy grape purees (Commodity) shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's title describes a specific processed fruit product, yet the recent opportunities tagged to this code span fresh produce procurement, canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh eggs, general food service commodities, and bulk food supply for schools and state facilities—none of which are burgundy grape purees. The mismatch signals that either the code has been misapplied to these opportunities or the taxonomy entry does not reflect actual procurement practice at the state and local level.

Issuing bodies pursuing food procurement under various codes include state departments of corrections, health and human services commissions, and education agencies; county and city school districts; and boards of education across Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia. Recent opportunities show school nutrition programs dominating the activity—Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Austin Independent School District (Texas), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) have all posted IFBs, RFPs, and ITBs for food products ranging from fresh produce and eggs to canned goods and prepared entrees. State agencies including the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, and City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases round out the issuer mix. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Oregon, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB for canned applesauce (due July 31, 2026, approximately 4,760 cases at $21.84 per case historical pricing), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide (210 line items with maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years), Fairfax County Public Schools IFB for Master Grocery K-12 (sealed bids due April 27, 2026, delivery to 45 schools plus seven distribution kitchens), and Hancock County Board of Education IFB for fresh produce (sealed bids due June 26, 2026, over 200 line items spanning multiple apple varieties, berries, and vegetables). The persistent category mismatch suggests that business development professionals should verify code assignments with issuing offices before pursuing—procurement officers may be using this code incorrectly, or vendors operating in bulk food supply should expect to encounter similar taxonomy misalignment across state and local RFP databases.
