UNSPSC 50384202: Cascade huckleberry purees

The variety of huckleberries known as cascade huckleberries which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50384202 Cascade huckleberry purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment between its stated scope and the food procurement activity actually tagged under it in state and local solicitations. Recent opportunities posted under this code request canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, specialty food items, and broad food supply contracts—none of which are cascade huckleberry purees. State and local governments buying under this tag include school districts (Austin ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Dallas ISD, Hancock County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Douglas County School System, Rockwood R-VI School District), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, State of Georgia, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and municipal bodies (City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases). The procurement is dispersed across multiple states with concentrations in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, Virginia, Connecticut, and Illinois.

Recent representative solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with a due date of July 31, 2026, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products supporting the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a due date of July 13, 2026, and the Douglas County School System RFP 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across Georgia with a due date of March 4, 2026 and estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One. The code appears to have been assigned incorrectly to these opportunities or serves as a catch-all tag for food commodity procurement, creating substantial noise for vendors specifically pursuing cascade huckleberry purees. No state or local solicitation in the recent block requests this product explicitly.
