UNSPSC 50395600: Organic persimmon purees

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

UNSPSC 50395600 Organic persimmon purees, a Class code, shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. State and local procurement under this code does not appear in the recent solicitations; instead, issuing bodies across school districts, corrections departments, health and human services agencies, and state procurement offices are actively procuring canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, comprehensive grocery items, and food service products for institutional food service, with the actual buying focused on broad commodity food categories rather than persimmon-specific products. The mismatch between the code's narrow specification and the breadth of food procurement activity suggests either widespread miscoding in state and local systems or that persimmon purees occupy a negligible share of food service spending.

Representative recent opportunities illustrate the scope of actual food procurement: the Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S-29100-00017453 (due July 31, 2026) for canned applesauce under a 5% Oregon-goods preference and 5% resident-bidder preference; Austin Independent School District solicited dried fruit bars and apple crisps under RFP 27RFP004 (due July 16, 2026); and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission sought supplemental food and consumable products under IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026) for El Paso State Supported Living Center with an estimated historical value of $1.5 million. School districts dominate issuing-body composition, with Hancock County Board of Education, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Dallas Independent School District all actively procuring food products in the first half of 2026. Geographic concentration appears strongest in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas, Connecticut) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with secondary activity in Missouri and Virginia. Procurement spans Buy American requirements, firm fixed pricing across contract periods, cooperative purchasing vehicles (GEC Buying Cooperative across 30 Georgia districts), and insurance minimums typically $1 million commercial general liability. No recent opportunities explicitly named persimmon purees or persimmon products as line items or delivery requirements.
