UNSPSC 50384710: Strawberry loquat purees

The variety of loquats known as strawberry loquats which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50384710 Strawberry loquat purees is a Commodity code that in recent state and local practice encompasses a much broader range of canned and fresh fruit products for institutional food service—applesauce, pears, produce, and eggs for school nutrition programs, state facilities, and correctional institutions. State and local buying bodies soliciting under or near this code span school districts (K–12 nutrition services), state departments of corrections, health and human services agencies, and county boards of education. The scope of work includes procurement of canned fruit products meeting USDA commodity specifications, fresh produce in case quantities, eggs, and supplemental food items for institutional meal programs, with delivery to central distribution warehouses and individual school sites. Recent representative solicitations show Oregon Department of Corrections issuing ITB S-29100-00017453 on July 10, 2026 (bids due July 31, 2026) for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce in five truck loads at $21.84 per case historical price, and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission Procurement and Contracting Services issuing IFB HHS0017449 on June 11, 2026 (proposals due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products supplying the El Paso State Supported Living Center with prior-period historical value of $1.5 million and estimated unit-rate pricing on firm fixed bases.

Recent activity concentrates in the South and West, with multiple Georgia school districts (Douglas County, Hancock County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Liberty County), Texas agencies (HHSC, DISD, TDCJ), and Oregon Department of Corrections all issuing competitive procurements in the February–July 2026 window. Most purchasing bodies use IFB or RFP methods, require firm fixed pricing delivered FOB destination with transportation prepaid by vendors, enforce Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content for processed items), mandate commercial general liability insurance of $1 million to $2 million per occurrence, and reserve the right to award to single or multiple vendors by line item. School districts typically issue annual contracts for the July–June school year with renewal options spanning two to four additional years, while state facilities contracts run calendar or fiscal years with similar renewal and extension structures. No recent opportunities under this code show set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises, though several references to MBE/CBE certification eligibility and encouragement of Small Business Opportunity participation appear in Texas and Connecticut solicitations. Payment terms vary from Net 30 to Net 45 days, and vendors across all issuing bodies must provide proof of insurance, E-Verify authorization, debarment certification, and compliance with federal food safety standards.
