UNSPSC 50396600: Organic sapote purees

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

UNSPSC 50396600 Organic sapote purees is a Class code that nominally covers fruit preparations, but recent state and local solicitations show limited direct procurement under this code. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code predominantly reflect broader food-service and commodity purchasing by state agencies, county governments, and school districts—including institutional food supply for corrections facilities, state hospitals, senior services, schools, and veterans' homes. The actual work being solicited includes shelf-stable and refrigerated food products (proteins, dairy, grains, canned and fresh produce, condiments, and consumables) for institutional meal service and canteen operations, with pricing structured as firm, all-inclusive unit rates on FOB Destination terms and delivery to centralized distribution points or multiple facility locations. Issuing bodies span state departments of corrections and health services, county boards of education and commissioners, independent school districts, and municipal procurement offices. The State of Illinois appears as a repeat buyer, soliciting multiple quarterly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy on both brand-specific and brand-or-equal bases.

Recent opportunities show geographic spread across Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County Schools, and the State of Georgia), Illinois (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy, multiple quarterly cycles), Oregon (Oregon Department of Corrections, multiple canned applesauce buys), Texas (TDCJ cafeteria food products, HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, and Austin Independent School District), and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center). Representative recent solicitations include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 requesting 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services with a due date of October 19, 2026 (RFQ); the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026, with historical pricing at $21.84 per case and Oregon goods and resident preferences totaling 10 percent; and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' IFB 304T-26-300CF for 382 line items of cafeteria food products for TDCJ due May 4, 2026 (extended), spanning proteins, dairy, grains, and condiments across multiple Texas distribution centers. Contract values reported include approximately $1.5 million for the Texas HHSC El Paso facility (prior period) and a maximum of $4.5 million over three years for the statewide HHSC supplemental food procurement.
