UNSPSC 50385023: Smith mango purees

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

UNSPSC 50385023 Smith mango purees (Commodity) represents specialized food products that state and local governments procure for institutional feeding programs, though recent solicitation activity under this specific code is sparse and largely displaced by broader food commodity and fresh produce buys. The issuing bodies soliciting food products in the recent record span state departments (Illinois, Texas, Oregon), county boards of education (Hancock County, Georgia), independent school districts (Austin, Texas), state facilities (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), county social services (Gwinnett County, Georgia), and municipal education systems (Bridgeport, Connecticut), with school nutrition programs and state institutional food service representing the dominant use cases. Food service buyers typically solicit shelf-stable proteins, grains, produce, and specialty items through IFBs and RFQs on fixed-price schedules, often with firm pricing through a contract period, delivery within 3–45 days of order, and FOB Destination terms with prepaid freight. The Commodity code's nominal scope—smith mango purees specifically—does not surface prominently in the recent opportunities block; instead, buyers are requesting dried fruit bars, fresh produce including mangos broadly, applesauce, and mixed food commodities that may incidentally include processed mango products.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County Schools, State of Georgia), Texas (Austin ISD, HHSC El Paso facility, TDCJ statewide), Illinois (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), Oregon (ODOC), and Connecticut (Bridgeport), with most opportunities posted in May through June 2026 and response dates clustered June–July 2026. Representative recent solicitations include Hancock County Board of Education's June 2026 IFB for over 200 line items of fresh produce for school year 2026–27 (due June 26, 2026); Texas HHSC's June 2026 IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products ($1.5 million prior-period value, September 2026 start); the Oregon Department of Corrections' July 2026 ITB S2910000017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (due July 31, 2026, with 5–10% Oregon-goods preference); and Austin Independent School District's June 2026 RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026). Buy American provisions and domestic-content requirements appear in school and state health facility procurements. Vendors pursuing this code should monitor institutional food service RFQs and IFBs from state departments, DOC facilities, and school districts in the Southeast and Southwest, where the recent activity concentrates.
