UNSPSC 50385152: Starbright melon purees

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

UNSPSC 50385152 Starbright melon purees (Commodity) does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are buying under this code. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span canned and fresh fruit products, dried fruit bars, applesauce, fresh produce, and general food service commodities for schools, correctional facilities, state veterans homes, and county senior services—none of which align with the narrow scope of Starbright-branded melon purees. The code tag appears to be a cataloging mismatch rather than a live procurement category.

The available opportunities show state and local governments actively procuring shelf-stable and fresh fruit products for institutional food service: canned applesauce for the Oregon Department of Corrections (ITB posted July 10 and May 18, 2026), fresh produce for Hancock County Board of Education (IFB due June 26, 2026), dried fruit bars and apple crisps for Austin Independent School District (RFP due July 16, 2026), and general food commodities for the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (IFB HHS0017449 due July 13, 2026) and Texas Department of Criminal Justice (IFB 304T-26-300CF response extended to May 4, 2026). Issuing bodies include state departments, county boards of education, independent school districts, and specialized state facilities. Geographic spread encompasses Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Illinois, and smaller county systems. The code shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal product scope; business development professionals should verify accurate commodity coding before pursuing opportunities in the broader food service and produce category.
