UNSPSC 50391631: Organic lorna apricot purees

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

UNSPSC 50391631 Organic lorna apricot purees (Commodity) is a narrow product category seeing light recent procurement activity from state and local government food service operations, primarily school districts, county social services departments, and corrections agencies. The code's nominal scope—organic apricot purees—does not closely align with the broader shelf-stable and fresh produce categories state and local buyers are currently soliciting under related codes. Recent opportunities show state and local governments purchasing dried and canned fruit products, fresh produce, and mixed food commodities for institutional food service, but dedicated RFPs or IFBs specifically for organic apricot purees do not appear in the recent record. The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia) issued an informal written quote (IWQ 140229) in October 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins, vegetables, and sauces for senior services; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued an IFB in May 2026 covering 210 line items of fresh, frozen, and refrigerated foods including fresh fruits and vegetables for state hospitals and supported living centers; and the Oregon Department of Corrections issued two ITBs (May and July 2026) for canned applesauce totaling approximately 6,664 cases across two separate procurements. Austin Independent School District solicited dried fruit bars and apple crisps via RFP in June 2026, and Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) bid fresh produce including berries, melons, and citrus for the 2026-27 school year in June 2026.

Issuing bodies include county departments (Gwinnett County, Hancock County), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas HHSC, State of Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), school districts (Austin Independent School District, Bridgeport Board of Education), and municipal purchasing offices (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut). The geographic spread spans Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut, with the densest recent activity in Georgia and Texas. The State of Illinois issued multiple quarterly food orders to the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (June and August 2026) on brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications. Representative recent opportunities include the Gwinnett County IWQ due October 19, 2026, for 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable foods; the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB due June 2, 2026, for 1,904 cases of canned applesauce at a historical price of $21.827 per case; and the Texas HHSC IFB due March 19, 2026, for supplemental food and consumables with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years. Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products) appear in school district and education-focused procurements. No recent state or local RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB specifically names organic apricot purees as a line item or primary commodity.
