UNSPSC 50386106: Pernambuco pineapple purees

The variety of pineapples known as pernambuco pineapple which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50386106 Pernambuco pineapple purees is a Commodity code that covers shelf-stable fruit purees and processed fruit products for institutional food service. State and local governments are buying this code mostly as part of broader food-supply and nutrition-service procurements, not as standalone specialty items. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code span school districts, county governments, state corrections and health-services agencies, and municipalities. Recent opportunities show that Pernambuco pineapple purees typically appear as one line item among dozens or hundreds in mixed-commodity food RFPs, RFQs, ITBs, and IFBs. These solicitations are rooted in operational food service — prison cafeterias, state hospitals, senior-services programs, school nutrition centers, and state-supported living facilities. Vendors responding to these procurements generally supply a full range of processed and fresh foods under single or multiple awards, with pricing evaluated on a per-unit or per-case basis and delivery required on FOB Destination terms to centralized distribution hubs or facility-level receiving points.

Geographic activity is dispersed across the South and West, with recent opportunities posted by Texas (HHSC and TDCJ facilities), Georgia (state procurement and Gwinnett County), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Illinois (Veterans Home at Quincy), Connecticut (Bridgeport), and Texas school districts. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to the El Paso State Supported Living Center (proposals due July 11, 2026, estimated historical value $1.5 million annually), the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's weekly food-order procurements for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (multiple cycles with proposals due August 24, 2026 and June 17, 2026 for brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications), the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quotes for shelf-stable food items under IWQ 140229 (due October 19, 2026, approximately 1,062 cases across 35 line items), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five geographic warehouse areas (due May 4, 2026, approximately 382 line items). The code shows active, recurring purchasing cycles tied to institutional operating budgets and appropriations; however, no recent opportunity exclusively targets Pernambuco pineapple purees, and the commodity typically represents one small line item within large, multi-category institutional food procurements.
