UNSPSC 50391511: Organic codlin apple purees

The variety of organic apples known as organic codlin apples which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50391511 Organic codlin apple purees (Commodity) covers canned and shelf-stable apple products—applesauce, apple crisps, and processed apple items—procured by state departments, school districts, and state health and correctional agencies for institutional food service. Recent state and local solicitations show demand for both sweetened and unsweetened applesauce in bulk cases, dried fruit bars and apple crisps for K-12 nutrition programs, and apple products as components of broader food service contracts. The Oregon Department of Corrections and school nutrition programs across multiple states are the primary issuing bodies visible in current activity, alongside state health and human services commissions supplying state institutional facilities.

Geographic concentration appears strongest in the Pacific Northwest and Southeast, with Oregon Department of Corrections posting multiple applesauce bids (ITB S-29100-00017453 due July 31, 2026, and earlier ITB S2910000016975 due June 2, 2026, each for approximately 1,900 to 4,760 cases), Austin Independent School District seeking dried fruit bars and apple crisps under RFP 27RFP004 (due July 16, 2026), and broader food procurement by Texas Health and Human Services Commission, state of Illinois, and school districts in Georgia and Missouri that may include apple products within wider commodity contracts. Texas HHSC's IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026) and Hancock County Schools' fresh produce bid PE67080NONST2027000000013 (due June 26, 2026) represent institutional solicitations where apple varieties and processed apple items compete alongside other produce. Pricing in visible opportunities ranges from the Oregon ODOC's historical rate of $21.84 per case for canned applesauce to commodity-based or cost-plus-fee structures in school nutrition contracts; most solicitations require firm, fixed pricing for the contract term and FOB destination delivery with transportation prepaid by vendors.
