UNSPSC 50386353: Mirabelle plum purees

The variety of plums known as mirabelle plum which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50386353 Mirabelle plum purees is a Commodity code covering shelf-stable fruit purees and processed fruit products purchased by state and local governments for food service operations. The code sees limited direct solicitation activity; recent opportunities show state and local procurement offices buying broader categories of food and consumables — canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and mixed food items for schools, corrections facilities, senior services, and state-supported living centers — rather than mirabelle plum purees specifically. Issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Georgia, State of Illinois, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), county boards of education (Hancock County, Georgia), city school districts (Austin Independent School District, Bridgeport Board of Education), county government (Gwinnett County), and special-purpose state facilities. School nutrition programs and correctional food service dominate the activity, with state facilities performing centralized purchasing for distributed delivery.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Illinois, Oregon, and Connecticut based on recent postings from June through October 2026. Representative solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITBs for canned fruit applesauce (approximately 1,904 to 4,760 cases per bid, historical pricing near $21.82 per case, ITB due June 2 and July 31, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide (210 line items across state hospitals and living centers, maximum $4.5 million potential value over three years, IFB due March 19, 2026), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB for cafeteria food products spanning 382 line items across five geographic areas (IFB extended to May 4, 2026), Gwinnett County's informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (quote due October 19, 2026), and the City of Bridgeport's bid for 115 line items including eggs, poultry, cheese, and fruit and vegetable products for the nutrition center (bid due June 26, 2026). Buy American provisions under the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act requiring 51 percent domestic content for processed foods appear in school district and state facility solicitations. Fruit purees as a standalone line item do not appear in recent postings; activity under this code likely reflects inclusion within broader mixed-commodity food service buys rather than dedicated single-product awards.
