UNSPSC 50386339: Holiday plum purees

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

UNSPSC 50386339 Holiday plum purees is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific fruit product, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it span a much broader range of shelf-stable and perishable food items sourced by public bodies for institutional food service. The nine opportunities in the dataset show issuing bodies acquiring fresh produce, canned fruits, dried fruit bars, eggs, poultry, cheese, proteins, frozen entrees, dairy products, condiments, and consumable kitchen supplies—scopes that substantially exceed the code's stated name. State and local buyers posting under this code include county boards of education (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), independent school districts (Austin Independent School District in Texas), state departments and agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois), city procurement offices (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut), and dedicated institutional food service operations. The issuing bodies treat this code as a general institutional food procurement vehicle rather than a category limited to plum purees specifically.

Activity is concentrated in the South and West, with multiple solicitations from Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, and representation from Illinois and Connecticut in the Midwest and Northeast. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requesting approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, and vegetables under IWQ 140229 (IFB posted October 13, 2026, due October 19, 2026); Oregon Department of Corrections issuing an ITB for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (ITB S-29100-00017453, posted July 10, 2026, bids due July 31, 2026); Austin Independent School District issuing an RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps for food service (RFP 27RFP004, posted June 26, 2026, due July 16, 2026); Texas Health and Human Services Commission requesting bids for food and consumable products to supply state supported living centers and state hospitals across multiple locations (IFB HHS0017449, posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026, with prior-period value of $1.5 million); and Texas Department of Criminal Justice soliciting approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products including proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, and produce for multiple warehouse distribution points (IFB 304T-26-300CF, due May 4, 2026, with response deadline extended via addendum). Most solicitations require compliance with Buy American provisions, specific USDA grade or commodity specifications, delivery within stated timeframes (often 45 to 72 hours), and maintenance of commercial general liability insurance; several impose state or local prevailing wage, MBE/CBE, or Oregon resident preference provisions.
