UNSPSC 50391604: Organic black apricot purees

The variety of organic apricots known as organic black apricots which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50391604 Organic black apricot purees (Commodity) shows minimal alignment between the code's nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code ostensibly covers organic black apricot purees as a specialty food ingredient, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, frozen and refrigerated grocery staples, and comprehensive food service distributions—none of which match the specific commodity. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and state agencies: the Oregon Department of Corrections, Austin Independent School District, the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, county boards of education (Hancock, Douglas, Liberty, Muscogee, Savannah-Chatham), city departments (Bridgeport), and large urban school systems (Dallas, Fairfax County). These jurisdictions solicit food procurement regularly, though the code assignment appears misaligned with actual purchasing intent.

Recent activity spans multiple states, concentrated in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, response due July 31, 2026); Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026); the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, with historical annual spend of $1.5 million); Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce across 200+ line items (due June 26, 2026); and the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-003 for food supply and distribution serving 32 schools with estimated annual expenditure of approximately $9,000,000 (due February 18, 2026). Buy American provisions and domestic content preferences appear consistently across school district procurements. The code does not reflect active purchasing of organic black apricot purees specifically; the UNSPSC assignment warrants verification against actual commodity demand.
