UNSPSC 50384300: Kiwi fruit purees

The type of egg-shaped kiwi fruit have a furry brownish green skin and firm, translucent green flesh with edible purple-black seeds at the centre. Also called chinese gooseberry, edible fruit of the vine actinidia chinensis (family actinidiaceae). The plant is native to china and taiwan and is now grown commercially in new zealand and california. which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50384300 Kiwi fruit purees, a Class code, sits at the intersection of fresh and processed fruit procurement that state and local governments use primarily for institutional food service — school districts, correctional facilities, senior services, and state-supported living centers. The code's scope encompasses shelf-stable and fresh fruit products; however, recent state and local solicitations under this code show minimal direct procurement of kiwi fruit purees specifically. The issuing bodies posting opportunities tagged to this code include county boards of education, state corrections departments, state health and human services agencies, municipal school districts, and county departments of community services. These jurisdictions typically buy broader categories of food commodities — canned applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit bars, and mixed food and consumable products — under single consolidated food-service RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs rather than targeting kiwi purees as a standalone line item.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut, with no single state dominating the posting volume. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing ITB S2910000017453 in July 2026 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (due July 31, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing IFB HHS0017449 in June 2026 for food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), and Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia posting IFB SN002-2027 in June 2026 for fresh produce spanning 200-plus line items for the 2026-27 school year (due June 26, 2026). The available records show no active solicitations explicitly seeking kiwi fruit purees as a primary deliverable, and the code appears underutilized relative to broader commodity food procurement categories. Vendors pursuing this code should monitor consolidated food-service RFPs from state corrections and human services agencies, which occasionally include specialty fruit products as secondary line items within larger mixed-food buys.
