UNSPSC 50384205: Red huckleberry purees

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

UNSPSC 50384205 Red huckleberry purees (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code. The recent solicitations—spanning Oregon, Texas, Illinois, Connecticut, Missouri, Georgia, and elsewhere—consistently target mainstream food service commodities including canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, eggs, proteins, dairy, and prepared entrees for correctional facilities, schools, and state health agencies. No procurement activity for red huckleberry purees specifically appears in the available data. The code itself names a narrow specialty fruit product, but the actual buying under this code identifier reflects broad institutional food service supply contracts dominated by commodity produce, proteins, and shelf-stable items with established vendor relationships and price points anchored to USDA indices or prior awards.

Institutional food buyers—primarily school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Dallas ISD, Hancock County Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Douglas County Schools) and state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Connecticut Board of Education)—drive activity. Texas agencies and Georgia school districts show the highest recent volume. Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026, with a historical price of $21.84 per case), Dallas ISD's RFP for food products for child nutrition services (due April 2, 2026), and the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia districts (due March 4, 2026, with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million). Bidders face firm fixed pricing requirements, Buy American compliance, USDA commodity specifications, liability insurance minimums of $1 million per occurrence, and delivery to multiple school and facility locations. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement suggests either systematic miscoding or that red huckleberry purees occupy minimal buying activity under this code.
