UNSPSC 50385107: Casaba melon purees

The variety of melons known as casaba melons which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50385107 Casaba melon purees (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities records show no solicitations for casaba melon purees or related melon products. State and local buyers posting under related food-supply codes are instead procuring shelf-stable canned fruits (applesauce, commodity-grade canned fruit in juice or syrup), fresh produce (melons of unspecified variety in one fresh-produce RFQ), dried fruit bars, and general food-service commodities for schools, corrections facilities, senior services, state-supported living centers, and veterans' homes. The code's nominal scope—a single processed fruit product with narrow use cases—sits outside the volume and variety characterizing active state and local food procurement at present.

Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and Texas Health and Human Services Commission dominate recent activity in canned-fruit and food-commodity procurement; Georgia, Connecticut, Illinois, and school districts in Georgia and Texas appear as repeat buyers. Geographic spread spans Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Illinois, and Connecticut. Representative recent opportunities include Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (1,904 cases, bids due June 2, 2026, with historical pricing at $21.827 per case), Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products including canned and fresh fruits to TDCJ warehouse locations (382 line items, bids due May 4, 2026, extended from April 21), and Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0016792v2 for supplemental food and consumables to state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (210 line items including fresh, frozen, and canned fruit and vegetable products, bids due March 19, 2026, with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years). No active procurement under UNSPSC 50385107 specifically is evident in the recent-opportunities record.
