UNSPSC 50385113: Dixie lee melon purees

The variety of melons known as dixie lee melons which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50385113 Dixie lee melon purees (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity; instead, issuing bodies are soliciting a much broader range of food products for institutional consumption, with the coded opportunities showing no alignment to melon purees specifically. State and local governments buying under this code tier are purchasing canned fruit applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce (apples, bananas, berries, vegetables, eggs), frozen entrees, dairy products, and miscellaneous food service items for correctional facilities, schools, health and human services agencies, and social service providers. The issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Georgia Department of Education), county school districts (Douglas County, Muscogee County, Hancock County, Savannah-Chatham County, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County), independent school districts (Austin, Dallas, Fairfax County), and municipal food service programs (City of Bridgeport). School nutrition programs dominate the recent volume, with multiple districts conducting annual or seasonal procurements for fresh produce, canned goods, dairy, proteins, and specialty food items.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia (Douglas County, Muscogee County, Hancock County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham County solicitations), Texas (Dallas ISD, Austin ISD, HHSC, TDCJ), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Oregon (ODOC), Connecticut (Bridgeport), and Illinois (state procurement). Representative recent opportunities include Oregon Department of Corrections issuing ITB S-29100-00017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with delivery to Salem, Oregon, due July 31, 2026; Austin Independent School District conducting RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products for El Paso State Supported Living Center due July 13, 2026 with estimated prior-period value of $1.5 million; Douglas County School System issuing RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million (Area One) and $1.1 million (Area Two), due March 4, 2026; and Dallas ISD issuing RFP JC250079 for various food products not available through main commodity bids, due April 2, 2026. The code shows substantial recent activity, though the opportunities logged under it reflect institutional foodservice procurement broadly rather than melon purees as a specialized commodity.
