UNSPSC 50396200: Organic quince purees

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

UNSPSC 50396200 Organic quince purees is a Class code that names a narrow food commodity, yet recent state and local opportunities tagged under it reflect broader food-service procurement spanning fresh produce, canned fruit, dried fruit products, and shelf-stable food staples rather than organic quince purees specifically. State and local buyers using this code include county boards of education, county departments of community services, state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies, independent school districts, city boards of education, and state veterans' homes. The scope of work solicited under the code encompasses food items for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, state-supported living centers, senior services, and institutional food service, with procurement methods including IFB, RFP, and informal written quote (IWQ) processes.

Recent activity is concentrated in the Southeast and across multiple states. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted an IWQ for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, canned vegetables) due October 19, 2026, for delivery to Gwinnett Senior Services Center in Georgia. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office solicited weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy for the fourth quarter of FY-27 (September–December), with proposals due August 24, 2026, under both brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITBs for canned applesauce (approximately 4,760 cases in July 2026 and 1,904 cases in May 2026) with historical pricing around $21.84 per case, both due at the OregonBuys system with 10 percent combined Oregon goods and resident-bidder preferences. Austin Independent School District posted an RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Department of State Health Services have issued multiple IFBs for food and consumable products across state hospitals and supported living centers, with estimated historical values of $1.5 million (El Paso facility, July 2026) and up to $4.5 million over three years (statewide, March 2026). The Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut) and Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) both solicited food commodities in June 2026 under Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products.
