UNSPSC 50393419: Organic cardinal grape purees

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

UNSPSC 50393419 Organic cardinal grape purees is a Commodity code that names a single food product line, but recent state and local solicitations filed under this code do not reflect procurement of organic cardinal grape purees specifically. Instead, the opportunities show school districts, county education systems, state departments of corrections, health and human services agencies, and municipal nutrition programs buying broad categories of food and consumable products — including fresh produce, canned fruits, dried fruit bars, cafeteria staples, and institutional food supplies. The mismatch between the code's narrow product name and the wide-ranging food-service purchases actually tagged to it suggests the code may serve as a catch-all for food commodities in state and local procurement systems, or that issuing bodies are applying it inconsistently. Solicitations are driven by school nutrition programs (Hancock County Board of Education, Austin Independent School District, Bridgeport Board of Education), state correctional and health agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), county social services (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), and municipal nutrition centers across multiple states.

Recent opportunities cluster in the Southeast (Georgia, Illinois, Texas, Connecticut, Ohio) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon). Representative recent procurements include Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items (apples, berries, root vegetables, melons, citrus, specialty produce) with delivery to three school locations and contract term July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027; Oregon Department of Corrections ITBs for canned applesauce (1,904 cases in May 2026 and 4,760 cases in July 2026, both with FOB Destination delivery to Salem); Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables to the El Paso State Supported Living Center ($1.5 million historical value for the prior 12-month period, September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2027, with renewal option); and Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB 304T26300CF for cafeteria food products across multiple warehouse locations (approximately 382 line items, extended response deadline May 4, 2026). Buy American provisions and domestic-content requirements appear in school nutrition procurements; Oregon applies 5% preferences for in-state fabrication and resident bidders; Texas applies CPI-linked price-adjustment mechanisms. These solicitations typically award to lowest responsive and responsible bidder or best value, often with single or split awards by line item at the issuing body's discretion.
