UNSPSC 50386717: Purpleflowering raspberry purees

The variety of raspberries known as purpleflowering raspberry which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50386717 Purpleflowering raspberry purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's name suggests specialty berry products, yet the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for raspberry purees of any color; instead, the tagged opportunities span canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, general weekly food orders, produce and eggs, fresh fruits and vegetables, and comprehensive food service supply contracts across institutional settings including corrections facilities, school districts, and health and human services operations. The mismatch between the code's stated commodity and the actual work being solicited indicates either a tagging error in state procurement systems or that raspberry purees fall outside the active state and local procurement market captured in this source.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting food products at scale include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Austin Independent School District, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Dallas Independent School District, Douglas County School System), state departments and commissions (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Comptroller on behalf of Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and county boards of education (Hancock County, Liberty County, Muscogee County) across Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Virginia, and Missouri. Food procurement dominates state and local activity: applesauce contracts under ITB via the Oregon Department of Corrections (bids due July 31, 2026 and June 2, 2026), produce and fresh fruit contracts via school districts using RFP and IFB mechanisms with response dates ranging from March through July 2026, and large-scale institutional food service supply contracts with estimated values reaching $9 million annually for school districts and $4.5 million over three years for state health services. No recent state or local opportunity explicitly solicits purpleflowering raspberry purees, suggesting the code carries minimal current procurement activity or represents a data-classification outlier rather than an active purchasing category.
