UNSPSC 50394604: Organic edwards mango purees

The variety of organic mangoes known as organic edwards mangoes which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50394604 Organic edwards mango purees is a Commodity code that covers fresh and processed fruit products, particularly shelf-stable purees, jams, and dried fruit items sourced from organic supply chains. State and local governments procuring under this code are primarily school districts, county boards of education, correctional facilities, health and human services agencies, and senior services departments that require food products for institutional food service operations. The actual buying activity across the code shows significant divergence from the narrow commodity name: recent solicitations span canned applesauce, fresh produce (apples, berries, melons, citrus, mangos, papayas), dried fruit bars and apple crisps, and broad food-supply contracts for state hospitals, correctional facilities, and school nutrition programs. Issuing bodies range from single school districts (Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education) to state-level procurement offices (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois, State of Georgia) and county purchasing departments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners). Buy American provisions appear consistently in school nutrition and state health service solicitations, typically requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, and Connecticut, with recent solicitations posted through June 2026.
