UNSPSC 50383928: Merlot grape purees

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

UNSPSC 50383928 Merlot grape purees (Commodity) does not align with the work actually being solicited under it by state and local governments. The recent-opportunities block shows no procurement activity for merlot grape purees or grape-based products of any kind. Instead, the code tags a diverse set of food-service solicitations spanning canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, general food supplies, fresh produce, frozen entrees, and shelf-stable grocery items—none of which are grape products. The sourcing appears to be a taxonomy mismatch rather than a code actively used for grape-puree procurement.

Recent state and local opportunities show fragmented issuing bodies across school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Austin ISD in Texas, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Liberty County Schools in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools in Georgia, Muscogee County Schools in Georgia, Douglas County Schools in Georgia), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas HHSC, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia), and specialty facilities (El Paso State Supported Living Center), with school nutrition programs representing the dominant buyer segment. Geographic activity spans Oregon, Texas, Missouri, Georgia, Virginia, Connecticut, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026), the Texas HHSC's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at El Paso State Supported Living Center (historical value $1.5 million annually, due July 13, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 across 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026). Because the code shows no relevant recent activity for its stated commodity, pursuing opportunities tagged to it would require confirming the actual product scope with issuing bodies before bid preparation.
