UNSPSC 50384405: Meiwa kumquat purees

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

UNSPSC 50384405 Meiwa kumquat purees (Commodity) appears in state and local procurement activity but the recent opportunities dataset shows little actual procurement under this code. The nine solicitations posted between May and October 2026 span food and consumable products broadly—including canned applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit bars, eggs, poultry, dairy, and cafeteria staples—but none directly name kumquat purees or comparable specialized fruit purees. The buying bodies are state departments (Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), county boards of education (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), city procurement offices (Bridgeport, Connecticut), and independent school districts (Austin Independent School District in Texas). Most solicitations are informal written quotes (IWQ), invitations for bids (IFB), or invitations to bid (ITB); response dates cluster in June and July 2026, with a few extending into August and October.

The geographic spread covers Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut based on recent postings. Representative opportunities include Oregon Department of Corrections' canned fruit applesauce ITBs (S2910000016975, due June 2, 2026, and S29100-00017453, due July 31, 2026), which procured 1,904 and 4,760 cases respectively at historical prices of approximately $21.83 per case; Texas HHSC's supplemental food and consumables IFB (HHS0016792V2) with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years; Texas TDCJ's cafeteria food products IFB (304T26300CF, due May 4, 2026, extended via addendum) across five geographic areas; and Hancock County Board of Education's fresh produce IFB (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026) spanning over 200 line items for the 2026–27 school year. The code's nominal scope (meiwa kumquat purees) does not align with the actual procurement mix documented here, which centers on shelf-stable proteins, dairy, grains, fresh and frozen vegetables, canned fruits, and consumable supplies rather than specialty fruit purees.
