UNSPSC 50391516: Organic crab apple purees

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

UNSPSC 50391516 Organic crab apple purees, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The source contains no opportunities specifically soliciting organic crab apple purees. A single Oregon Department of Corrections ITB (S2910000017453, due July 31, 2026) requests canned fruit applesauce under this code, but applesauce—a broad commodity category—does not match the specific product line of organic crab apple purees. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the procurement system or that the code is used more broadly to classify general apple-based processed fruit products than the code name indicates.

State and local issuing bodies posting under this code span school districts, corrections agencies, health and human services departments, and state purchasing offices across Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Missouri, and other jurisdictions, but recent opportunities are concentrated in school nutrition procurement and institutional food service rather than organic specialty items. The Oregon Department of Corrections applesauce opportunity carries a 5% combined preference for Oregon-fabricated goods and Oregon-headquartered bidders, and historical pricing at $21.84 per case provides a reference point. Without a sustained pipeline of opportunities explicitly seeking organic crab apple purees at the Commodity level, the code shows limited current activity for vendors specializing in that product line. Business development professionals should monitor whether procurement offices begin tagging organic fruit product solicitations more precisely or whether the code remains a catch-all for processed apple commodities that may not represent a focused buying signal.
