UNSPSC 50391582: Organic stark crimson apple purees

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

UNSPSC 50391582 Organic stark crimson apple purees, a Commodity code, does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope specifies organic red apple purees; however, the recent opportunities actually solicited under this code number involve generic canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, and fresh produce procurement bearing no relationship to the code's stated product category. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S-29100-00017453 in July 2026 requesting 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (sweetened or unsweetened, smooth or chunky) meeting USDA 2011 commodity specifications, with delivery to Salem at approximately $21.84 per case; this solicitation is a straightforward commodity supply contract unrelated to organic purees. Austin Independent School District simultaneously solicited dried fruit bars and apple crisps under RFP 27RFP004 with a July 16, 2026 response deadline, also distinct from the code's nominal scope.

State and local issuing bodies tagging opportunities under UNSPSC 50391582 represent a mix of correctional facilities (Oregon Department of Corrections), school districts (Austin ISD), health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC, Illinois Chief Procurement Office), and specialized institutions (Texas State Supported Living Centers). The geographic spread concentrates in Texas, Oregon, Georgia, and Illinois. The mismatch between the code's stated definition and the actual goods being purchased—generic canned applesauce and dried fruit products rather than organic purees—suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a taxonomy designation that no longer reflects procurement practice. Business development professionals targeting this code should verify current issuing body classifications before pursuing opportunities, as the code appears to function as a catch-all for apple and fruit-based food products regardless of organic certification or puree specification.
