UNSPSC 50394700: Organic melon purees

The type of organic fruit known as organic melons which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50394700 Organic melon purees, a Class code, does not align with the recent state and local opportunities posted under this classification. The opportunities sourced to this code span fresh and processed fruit products (applesauce, pears, dried fruit bars, apple crisps), fresh produce (including melons, apples, berries, and leafy greens), and broader food-service commodities for schools, correctional facilities, and state health institutions—but none specifically address organic melon purees as a standalone procurement category. The code shows substantial activity in school nutrition and institutional food service, yet the actual buying focuses on general fresh produce, canned and frozen fruits, and mixed grocery items rather than melon puree products specifically.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, including Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Dallas Independent School District (Texas), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia). State agencies also participate—the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office—along with municipal education boards such as Austin Independent School District and the City of Bridgeport's Board of Education. Recent activity clusters in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas) and mid-Atlantic (Virginia, Missouri), with secondary activity in the Pacific Northwest (Oregon) and Connecticut. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026, with a 10 percent combined Oregon-goods and Oregon-headquartered-bidder preference), Fairfax County Public Schools IFB for Master Grocery K-12 (45 schools plus seven distribution kitchens, due April 27, 2026), and the Douglas County School System RFP for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across two Georgia areas (estimated $5.5 million annual spend across both areas, due March 4, 2026). Buy American provisions and USDA commodity compliance requirements appear across most solicitations; many school districts apply firm pricing and include renewal options spanning two to five years.
