UNSPSC 50386350: Mariposa plum purees

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

UNSPSC 50386350 Mariposa plum purees is a Commodity code that represents state and local government procurement of preserved and processed fruit products for institutional food service, though the recent opportunities block shows minimal direct activity under this specific code and instead reflects broader fruit procurement spanning school nutrition, corrections facilities, senior services, and state-operated care centers. The issuing bodies soliciting fruit-related products include county school boards, state departments of corrections, state departments of human services, county boards of education, and municipal school districts. Scope varies from canned applesauce to fresh produce to dried fruit bars, with deliveries typically FOB destination to central distribution points, warehouses, or multiple facility locations. Institutional buyers emphasize USDA compliance, Buy American provisions where applicable, minimum shelf-life requirements, and firm fixed pricing for contract terms ranging from one to three years. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections procuring 1,904 cases of canned fruit applesauce (ITB S-29100-00017453, due July 31, 2026) at a historical price of $21.84 per case with five percent Oregon-preference weight; Hancock County Board of Education soliciting fresh produce with over 200 line items including apple varieties, berries, and specialty fruits (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026) for school nutrition; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice procuring cafeteria food products including canned and fresh fruits across five geographic warehouse areas (IFB 304T-26-300CF, extended to May 4, 2026). Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas), Pacific Northwest (Oregon), and Upper Midwest (Illinois), with school districts and state corrections or human services departments appearing across multiple states. The code itself shows limited targeted procurement under the mariposa plum purees designation; most recent fruit solicitations use broader commodity categories or specific fruit types (applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit bars) rather than narrowly specified plum products.
