UNSPSC 50384404: Malayan kumquat purees

The variety of kumquats known as malayan kumquats which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50384404 Malayan kumquat purees is a Commodity code that does not see meaningful recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code's name refers to a specific processed fruit product, but the thirteen recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code predominantly solicit broad food service supply arrangements—canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, frozen entrees, dairy, proteins, and general grocery staples for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, state hospitals, and supported living centers. These opportunities reflect institutional food procurement at scale, not specialty puree sourcing. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Liberty County in Georgia, Muscogee County in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools in Georgia, Austin Independent School District in Texas, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, State of Georgia), and city nutrition services (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut). One vendor appears repeatedly: MJ Kellner and Robbins Sales have recently won ODOC applesauce contracts.

The geographic spread concentrates heavily in the Southeast and Texas, with Georgia school districts dominating the recent opportunities, followed by Texas and Oregon. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (response due July 31, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (response due July 13, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education IFB for fresh produce (response due June 26, 2026), and the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System bid for fresh produce under Bid 26-34 (response due April 23, 2026). The code shows material state and local procurement activity, but the work being actually solicited—institutional bulk food supply across diverse commodity categories—bears little resemblance to the specific puree product the code nominally describes.
