UNSPSC 50387102: Northline saskatoon berry purees

The variety of saskatoon berries known as northline saskatoon berries which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50387102 Northline saskatoon berry purees is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually buying under this classification. The recent solicitation activity posted against this code comprises canned fruit applesauce, dried fruit bars and apple crisps, fresh produce (apples, berries, broccoli, carrots, eggs, leafy greens, citrus, potatoes), and assorted food and consumable products for correctional facilities, schools, and state-supported living centers. The code's nominal scope—saskatoon berry purees—appears to be a poor fit for the procurement record; state and local buyers are soliciting broad categories of commodity foods and fresh produce for institutional food service, not a single specialized fruit product.

Issuing bodies span school districts (Austin Independent School District, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, Hancock County Board of Education), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, State of Georgia, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and county-level institutions (Texas HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center). School districts and state corrections and health agencies dominate recent activity. Recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce (bids due July 31, 2026); Austin Independent School District posting RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education issuing IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce spanning 200 line items (bids due June 26, 2026); and the Douglas County School System posting RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of approximately $5.5 million (proposals due March 4, 2026). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Connecticut, Missouri, and Illinois. The code shows substantial recent activity but little relevance to saskatoon berry purees specifically; procurement professionals should treat this as a broad institutional food commodity code disconnected from its stated name.
