UNSPSC 50396900: Organic sugar apple purees

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

UNSPSC 50396900 Organic sugar apple purees, a Class code, covers shelf-stable and fresh fruit products purchased by state and local governments for food service programs. However, the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations explicitly seeking organic sugar apple purees; instead, state and local buyers are procuring applesauce (both canned and fresh), dried fruit bars, fresh produce assortments, and broader food-service commodities. The code nominally describes a narrow product line, but recent procurement activity does not support a dedicated market for organic sugar apple purees specifically. Issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts for the Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, State of Georgia), county boards of education (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), school districts (Austin Independent School District in Texas, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), and state-supported living facilities. The mix reflects institutional food service across corrections, veterans' homes, schools, and human services.

Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce (approximately 4,760 cases), due July 31, 2026, offering a 10 percent combined Oregon-goods and Oregon-vendor preference; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a historical annual value of $1.5 million and proposals due July 13, 2026; Austin Independent School District's RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; Hancock County Board of Education's IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce with over 200 line items including multiple apple varieties, due June 26, 2026; and the Texas Comptroller's IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across TDCJ warehouses with approximately 382 line items, due May 4, 2026.
