UNSPSC 50385144: Regency melon purees

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

UNSPSC 50385144 Regency melon purees (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local contract activity posted under this code. The most recent opportunities—spanning June and July 2026—solicit canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and broad food-service commodities for correctional facilities, schools, and state-supported living centers, none of which match the specific commodity name. State and local buyers posting under this code include the Oregon Department of Corrections, Austin Independent School District, the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, school districts in Georgia (Hancock County, Douglas County, Savannah-Chatham, Muscogee, Liberty), Connecticut (Bridgeport), Texas (Dallas, Rockwood), and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI). The issuing bodies span state corrections and health agencies, school districts of varying sizes, and regional buying cooperatives, with no repeat buyer appearing more than twice in the recent sample.

Geographically, recent solicitations cluster in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with additional activity in Illinois, Connecticut, and Missouri. Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (response due July 31, 2026), seeking approximately 4,760 cases delivered to Salem with a historical price of $21.84 per case; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center (proposals due July 13, 2026), with an estimated historical value of $1.5 million for the prior period; and the Douglas County School System's RFP 26-003 for food supply and distribution to 32 schools serving approximately 25,500 students (proposals due February 18, 2026), with estimated annual expenditure of approximately $9 million. The code shows substantial recent activity in commodity food procurement, though the commodity name "Regency melon purees" appears in none of the posted solicitations, suggesting a potential classification mismatch or seasonal gap between the code designation and current procurement demand.
