UNSPSC 50395940: Organic howard sun plum purees

The variety of organic plums known as organic howard sun plums which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50395940 Organic howard sun plum purees (Commodity) does not reflect the actual scope of state and local food procurement activity in recent solicitations. The posted opportunities tagged under this code pursue canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, broad commodity food supply, and general grocery products for K-12 school nutrition, state correctional facilities, state hospitals, and state supported living centers—none of which align with organic plum purees. This code shows no recent activity that matches its nominal scope. State and local buyers are actively soliciting fruit and produce products, but the category mismatch between the code name and the work actually being purchased suggests either tagging error or obsolescence of the commodity designation.

Issuing bodies span school districts, state departments, and corrections agencies across multiple states. Recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections (canned applesauce, ITB S-29100-00017453 due July 31, 2026), Austin Independent School District (dried fruit and apple crisps, RFP 27RFP004 due July 16, 2026), Texas Health and Human Services Commission (supplemental food for state hospitals and supported living centers, multiple procurements including HHS0017449 due July 13, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia (fresh produce for 2026-27 school year, IFB due June 26, 2026), City of Bridgeport Connecticut Board of Education (commodity food supply, electronic bids due June 26, 2026), Douglas County School System in Georgia (fresh produce and eggs through cooperative buying, RFP SN 26-004 due March 4, 2026), and Dallas Independent School District (specialty food products not available through main bids, RFP JC250079 due April 2, 2026). Activity concentrates in the Southeast (Georgia school districts, Texas state agencies) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon corrections), with additional opportunities in Connecticut, Missouri, and Illinois. Contract values range from approximately $41,500 for Oregon applesauce through $9 million for Douglas County food supply and distribution services. School nutrition programs represent the dominant buyer type, followed by state institutional food service (corrections, hospitals, supported living centers), with firm pricing, FOB destination delivery, and Buy American compliance appearing standard across most awards.
