UNSPSC 50385004: Edwards mango purees

The variety of mangoes known as edwards mangoes which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50385004 Edwards mango purees is a Commodity code that bears little relation to the state and local procurement activity the code nominally describes. Recent solicitations tagged under this code span canned and fresh produce, eggs, dried fruit bars, applesauce, processed grocery items, and broad food-service commodities for schools, corrections facilities, healthcare institutions, and other public agencies—none of which are Edwards brand mango purees or mangoes specifically. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the source material or use of the Commodity code as a catch-all placeholder for produce and food items across state and local purchasing systems. Actual buying under codes nominally reserved for specialty tropical-fruit purees does not surface in recent activity; instead, the posted opportunities reflect demand for bulk commodity foods and fresh produce across the widest range of food-service end uses.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, including Fairfax County Public Schools, Dallas Independent School District, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Hancock County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, and Austin Independent School District, followed by state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of TDCJ), county boards of education (Muscogee County), and municipal purchasing offices (City of Bridgeport). Geographic concentration runs heaviest in Texas, Georgia, and the Pacific Northwest, with activity also in Oregon, Connecticut, Missouri, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 (July 31, 2026, response date) for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at $21.84 per case, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 (July 13, 2026, response date) for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center with historical annual value of $1.5 million, Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 (April 27, 2026, response date) for Master Grocery K-12 across 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens, and the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 (March 4, 2026, response date) through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million combined across both geographic areas.
