The variety of organic table grapes known as organic autumn royal grapes which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50393405 Organic autumn royal grape purees is a Commodity code. State and local governments use this code to procure shelf-stable and fresh fruit products for institutional food service—primarily school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, health and human services residential centers, and county senior services. The recent opportunities under this code reflect a much broader range of fruit procurement than the code name alone suggests: canned applesauce, dried fruit bars and apple crisps, fresh produce (including multiple apple varieties, berries, melons, and citrus), canned and frozen fruit products, and supplemental food and consumables. Issuing bodies soliciting under the code include state departments of corrections, state health and human services commissions, county boards of education, independent school districts, county boards of commissioners, and municipal boards of education. Purchasing typically moves through formal competitive notice types—IFB (invitation for bid), RFP, and RFQ—with sealed or electronic bid submission and awards made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder or on best-value grounds.

Recent activity spans multiple states with particular concentration in the Southeast and Southwest. The Oregon Department of Corrections posted two ITBs for canned applesauce (May 2026 and July 2026, both with bid closing at 9:00 AM PST and applicability of 5% Oregon preference on fabrication and residency; historical pricing at $21.827–$21.84 per case). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued a high-value supplemental food and consumables IFB covering 210 line items statewide with a maximum potential contract value of $4.5 million over three years (bid due March 19, 2026). The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office solicited weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy on multiple quarterly cycles (June and August 2026 deadlines). Georgia (State of Georgia, May 15, 2026), Connecticut (City of Bridgeport Board of Education, June 26, 2026), Texas (Austin Independent School District, July 16, 2026; Texas TDCJ, May 4, 2026), and Georgia again (Hancock County Board of Education, June 26, 2026; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, October 19, 2026) round out recent geographic coverage. Most procurement documents flag Buy American content requirements (51% minimum for processed products), prevailing wage compliance where applicable, and delivery within 30–72 hours or by specified calendar date; some require HACCP plans, E-Verify authorization, and backup stock for emergency delivery.
