UNSPSC 50391632: Organic lulu belle apricot purees

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

UNSPSC 50391632 Organic lulu belle apricot purees is a Commodity code that captures shelf-stable and fresh fruit products purchased for institutional food service, though the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations specifically for apricot purees. Instead, recent state and local activity under codes in the broader fruit and produce category reflects demand for canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce (including multiple apple varieties and other fruits), and general food commodities for correctional facilities, schools, senior services, veterans' homes, and state-supported living centers. The issuing bodies are predominantly state corrections and health agencies, school districts, counties, and municipalities—repeat buyers include the Oregon Department of Corrections (two recent applesauce ITBs), the State of Illinois (multiple quarterly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (supplemental food procurements for state hospitals and supported living centers). The code does not support a specific recent opportunity for apricot purees; the mismatch signals that this particular commodity variant sees little recent state and local procurement activity under this code.

Geographic concentration appears strongest in Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, and Connecticut based on the recent opportunities. The State of Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, Comptroller) has posted multiple food commodity solicitations with historical values ranging from $1.5 million annually (HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center) to $4.5 million over three years (supplemental food and consumables statewide). Oregon Department of Corrections has posted two canned applesauce ITBs with estimated values around $41,000 to $104,000 per procurement. Hancock County Schools in Georgia solicited fresh produce for 2026–27 (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026), and Gwinnett County in Georgia sought shelf-stable food items for the Department of Community Services (IWQ 140229, IFB due October 19, 2026). The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office posted multiple quarterly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy in brand-specific and brand-or-equal formats. Connecticut (City of Bridgeport) issued a 115-line-item food commodities bid (due June 26, 2026) for the school nutrition center. Austin Independent School District (Texas) solicited dried fruit bars and apple crisps (RFP 27RFP004, due July 16, 2026). The absence of recent apricot-puree-specific solicitations suggests limited current demand or that the commodity is procured under broader food-supply contracts rather than as a standalone line item.
