UNSPSC 50386331: Friar plum purees

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

UNSPSC 50386331 Friar plum purees, a Commodity code, does not match the work state and local governments are actually buying under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged with this code solicited canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and full-line food service supplies—none of which are friar plum purees. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or use of the code as a broad catch-all for processed fruit products in state and local procurement systems. No recent opportunities solicited friar plum purees specifically.

The issuing bodies sourcing food products across the broader range of code-adjacent opportunities include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Department of Criminal Justice), school districts (Austin Independent School District, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Dallas Independent School District, Douglas County School System), municipalities (City of Bridgeport), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts). Geographic activity is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Virginia, Missouri, and Connecticut, with the heaviest volume in Texas and Georgia school districts. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026), Dallas Independent School District's RFP for various food products including spice and ice cream lots (due April 2, 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and living centers statewide (due February 23, 2026, with a maximum three-year contract value of $4.5 million). School district procurements typically use IFB structure with firm fixed pricing, Buy American compliance, and multi-year terms with renewal options; state-level food service procurements are larger in scope and dollar value and frequently serve correctional and health facilities.
