UNSPSC 50385448: Spring red nectarine purees

The variety of nectarines known as spring red nectarines which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50385448 Spring red nectarine purees is a Commodity code that names a specific fruit product, but recent state and local solicitations under this code show minimal relevant activity — the ten most recent opportunities posted between May 2026 and October 2026 include food and beverage procurements across multiple categories (fresh produce, canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, cafeteria food products, and consumable supplies) but contain no recorded bids or awards specifically for spring red nectarine purees. The single opportunity nominally tagged to this code — Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' October 2026 IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items — encompasses 35 line items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, and canned vegetables, with no nectarine purees identified in the scope. This mismatch between the code's nominal definition and the actual work being bought suggests the code either sits outside current state and local food procurement activity or is applied inconsistently by issuing agencies.

State and local buyers actively procuring fruit and vegetable products — school districts, county boards of education, state departments of corrections, health and human services agencies, and boards of nutrition — are sourcing fresh produce, canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, and bulk food commodities through RFPs, IFBs, and ITBs across Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Connecticut, and Illinois. Issuing bodies range from individual school districts (Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education, City of Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center) to statewide agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Illinois, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), with contracts typically running one to three years and often incorporating Buy American provisions and compliance with USDA commodity specifications. However, none of these procurements identify spring red nectarine purees as a line item or requirement. Business development professionals should verify whether this Commodity code reflects actual state and local purchasing patterns or represents an artifact of UNSPSC taxonomy that does not align with current operational demand.
