UNSPSC 50391804: Organic wintergreen barberry purees

The variety of organic barberries known as organic wintergreen barberries which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50391804 Organic wintergreen barberry purees (Commodity) sees minimal procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. State and local governments are not currently soliciting wintergreen barberry purees; instead, the code's recent opportunities reflect a broad range of food-service procurement across canned and fresh produce, specialty dietary items, and prepared foods supplied to corrections facilities, schools, state health agencies, and institutional food-service operations. The recent record shows Oregon Department of Corrections soliciting canned applesauce, Austin Independent School District requesting dried fruit bars and apple crisps, the State of Illinois procuring quarterly food orders, Texas Health and Human Services Commission sourcing supplemental food and consumables statewide, and multiple school districts across Georgia and Missouri procuring fresh produce, grocery items, and specialty food products—none of which involve wintergreen barberry purees or products materially similar to that commodity. The code appears to be a mistagging artifact; issuing bodies include state corrections departments, school districts of varying sizes, state health agencies, and regional school buying cooperatives, but their actual procurement spans apples, applesauce, berries, vegetables, eggs, proteins, and institutional staple foods rather than specialty botanical purees.

Geographic activity clusters in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, Illinois, and Connecticut, driven primarily by school district nutrition programs and state institutional food service. Representative recent opportunities include Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with bids due July 31, 2026 (historical price $21.84 per case); Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; and Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts with estimated annual spending of approximately $5.5 million, sealed proposals due March 4, 2026. School nutrition programs represent the dominant buyer category, reflecting federal Child Nutrition program funding and USDA commodity sourcing requirements. The code shows no current market relevance for wintergreen barberry puree suppliers and warrants reclassification or review of its recent tagging.
