UNSPSC 50385863: Sunhigh peach purees

The variety of peaches known as sunhigh peaches which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50385863 Sunhigh peach purees (Commodity) describes canned and shelf-stable fruit products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service—school nutrition programs, senior services, correctional facilities, state hospitals, and health-and-human-services facilities. Recent solicitations show the code capturing a broader range of canned and processed fruit items than the specific "Sunhigh peach purees" name suggests; state and local buyers are soliciting canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, and mixed fresh and processed fruit under related codes and line items within the same RFP or IFB, typically bundled with other shelf-stable and frozen proteins, dairy, grains, and vegetables in multi-line-item food-service contracts. The issuing bodies span school districts (Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education), county agencies (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), state departments and correctional systems (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois), and specialized state facilities (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy). School districts and state institutional food service operations dominate the recent activity.

Recent opportunities cluster in Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, and Connecticut. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two ITBs for canned applesauce (approximately 1,904 cases due June 2, 2026, and 4,760 cases due July 31, 2026, each with a historical price near $21.83–$21.84 per case), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted an IFB for supplemental food and consumables with a maximum potential contract value of $4.5 million over three years (due March 19, 2026). Gwinnett County, Georgia requested approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables due October 19, 2026, while the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts issued an IFB for cafeteria food products across five TDCJ warehouse locations with response due May 4, 2026. Austin Independent School District solicited dried fruit bars and apple crisps via RFP due July 16, 2026, and the State of Illinois issued two quarterly food-order proposals for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (both due August 24, 2026). Fruit and produce items typically carry Buy American provisions requiring at least 51 percent domestic content for processed products, FOB Destination delivery with transportation prepaid, and firm fixed pricing for the contract term. Award methodologies favor lowest responsive and responsible bidder or best value, with many jurisdictions reserving the right to split awards by line item or make multiple awards.
