UNSPSC 50387546: Star fruit purees

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

UNSPSC 50387546 Star fruit purees is a Commodity code. State and local governments soliciting under this code are procuring food products for institutional food service operations — primarily canned and preserved fruits, applesauce, dried fruit bars, and fresh produce for school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, health and human services agencies, and county senior services. The recent opportunities show a clear pattern: most solicitations tag food items broadly under commodity or food-supply codes that capture many product lines at once, rather than isolating star fruit puree as a distinct line item. Among the ten recent opportunities posted between May 2026 and October 2026, only one directly names star fruit as a line item — Hancock County Board of Education's June 2026 fresh-produce RFQ for school nutrition, which included specialty items such as kiwis, mangos, papayas, and starfruit alongside conventional produce. The remaining opportunities procure canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh-produce assortments, and bulk food commodities for prisons, state hospitals, senior centers, and school districts. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and health and human services, state hospital and supported-living-center operators, county boards of education and senior services, city school districts, and city/county purchasing offices. The code appears primarily to serve school nutrition and institutional food-service contexts rather than retail or consumer markets.

Georgia, Oregon, Texas, Illinois, and Connecticut show the heaviest recent activity, with the Oregon Department of Corrections posting twice (May and July 2026) for canned applesauce; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office posting three times for weekly food orders at the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy; Texas Health and Human Services Commission posting twice for supplemental food and consumables and food-service products; and Hancock County Board of Education, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Austin Independent School District, the City of Bridgeport Board of Education, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice each posting once. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce, with bids due June 26, 2026, covering over 200 line items including starfruit; the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce, bids due July 31, 2026, with a historical award price of $21.84 per case to Robbins Sales; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center, bids due July 13, 2026, with a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million. Buy American provisions and domestic content requirements appear in school and corrections procurements; Oregon offers resident and in-state processing preferences on corrections food bids; and most solicitations require firm fixed pricing and FOB Destination delivery terms.
