UNSPSC 50384502: Bearss sicilian lemon purees

The variety of lemons known as bearss sicilian lemons which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50384502 Bearss Sicilian lemon purees, a Commodity code, shows material mismatch between its nominal scope and the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The opportunities documented here span canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, weekly food orders, food and consumable products for state facilities, fresh produce, eggs, main-line food service distribution, and specialty grocery items — none of which are Sicilian lemon purees or lemon-based products. State and local procurement databases appear to tag these broader fruit and food-service solicitations with this code despite minimal relevance to the coded commodity itself, suggesting either systematic misclassification or use of the code as a catch-all for fruit product procurement.

Activity under this code spans a diverse issuing-body mix including state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Department of Criminal Justice, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, State of Georgia), school districts and boards of education (Austin Independent School District, Dallas Independent School District, Fairfax County Public Schools, Hancock County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Rockwood R-VI School District), and special-purpose entities (City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases for the Board of Education Nutrition Center). Geographic spread includes Oregon, Texas, Illinois, Georgia, Virginia, Connecticut, and Missouri. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce (4,760 cases, response due July 31, 2026), Austin Independent School District's RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), and Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items (sealed bids due June 26, 2026). No recent solicitations for Sicilian lemon purees or lemon-focused products appear in the dataset; the code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its nominal commodity classification.
