UNSPSC 50386330: Freedom plum purees

The variety of plums known as freedom plums which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50386330 Freedom plum purees is a Commodity code that names a narrow product line, but the recent state and local solicitations using this code do not reflect procurement of freedom plum purees specifically. Instead, the opportunities tagged under this code span broad food-service purchasing for institutional consumers — school districts, corrections departments, veterans homes, senior services centers, and state health agencies — across shelf-stable and fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and prepared entrees. The buying pattern shows that agencies use this code as a catch-all for food commodities broadly, not as a precision classifier for a single product type. Issuing bodies include state procurement offices (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, State of Georgia, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice), county boards of education and commissioners (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), independent school districts (Austin Independent School District in Texas, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), and specialized state facilities (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy, HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center). Work is solicited through RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs with quantities ranging from dozens to thousands of cases and historical contract values reaching up to $4.5 million over three years.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia, Texas, Illinois, Oregon, and Connecticut. Representative solicitations include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requesting 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta) with quotes due October 19, 2026 under IWQ 140229; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office soliciting weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy for September through December 2026 (proposals due August 24, 2026, two separate ITBs for brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications); the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing an ITB for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce delivered to Salem (bids due July 31, 2026); Austin Independent School District seeking proposals for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (proposals due July 16, 2026); the Texas Health and Human Services Commission requesting bids on food and consumable products for the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center (bids due July 13, 2026, with historical spend of $1.5 million); and the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases requesting bids on 115 line items of commodities for the Board of Education Nutrition Center (bids due June 26, 2026).
