UNSPSC 50387501: Akee purees

The variety of fruit known as akee which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50387501 Akee purees (Commodity) shows minimal recent activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. Recent state and local opportunities tagged under this Commodity code solicited canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and broad food and consumable products for correctional facilities, state health centers, school nutrition programs, and food service operations—none of which are akee purees. The code appears to be a narrow commodity designation that does not reflect current procurement patterns in state and local contracting.

Issuing bodies posting under or near this code span correctional departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), state health agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office), school districts (Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Dallas Independent School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), municipalities (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut), and cooperative buying arrangements (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts). Activity clusters in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Connecticut, and Missouri, with school nutrition procurement dominating the volume. Representative recent solicitations include Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (response due July 31, 2026), Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce across 200+ line items (due June 26, 2026), and Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 cooperating districts with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million (due March 4, 2026). The code does not see recent procurement activity for akee purees specifically; buyers in this space are sourcing mainstream commodity fruits, applesauces, processed produce items, and bulk food supply through competitive bidding under Buy American and school nutrition program compliance requirements.
