UNSPSC 50385606: Tainung papaya purees

The variety of papayas known as tainung papayas which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50385606 Tainung papaya purees (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity under this code. The fifteen recent opportunities posted since February 2026 span applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, canned fruits, eggs, and broad food-service distribution — none reference papaya purees or products specific to the Tainung variety. The code's abstract name bears no operational relationship to what state and local governments are actually soliciting under it.

State and local procurement under this code in practice centers on staple fresh and processed food items for school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and state-supported living centers. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and health services, school districts (elementary through high schools), and county boards of education across the South and Pacific Northwest. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (due July 31, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for 210 line items of supplemental food and consumable products for state hospitals statewide (potential contract value $4.5 million over three years, due June 17 and updated as of late February 2026), the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia school districts ($4.4 million estimated annual spend for Area One alone, due March 4, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB for Master Grocery K-12 supply to 45 schools plus distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026). Activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia, with school nutrition programs driving the majority of recent volume. No recent solicitations reference the commodity described in the code name.
