UNSPSC 50394301: Organic advance loquat purees

The variety of organic loquats known as organic advance loquats which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50394301 Organic advance loquat purees is a Commodity code that in practice sees virtually no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and broad food-service commodities for schools, correctional facilities, and health-and-human-services institutions—none of which are organic loquat products or loquat preparations. The mismatch between the code's name and the actual goods being solicited suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a code that has drifted from its original intent as state and local food procurement has evolved.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting food products across the broader food-service category—school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Austin ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County, Liberty County, Muscogee County), state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Georgia), and other institutional food services—use ITBs, IFBs, and RFPs to source produce, proteins, dairy, prepared foods, and consumables, often with firm fixed pricing, Buy American or domestic-preference requirements, and multi-year renewal options. Recent opportunities span Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia, with representative recent procurements including the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (due July 31, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB for 210 line items of supplemental food and consumables statewide (historical value $1.5 million annually), and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB for master grocery K-12 (April 27, 2026 due date, serving 45 schools plus seven distribution kitchens). The code shows active procurement volume but does not track loquat or organic-speciality fruit products; firms pursuing state and local food-service work should monitor broader commodity codes rather than relying on this specific designation.
