UNSPSC 50397130: Organic rosell purees

The variety of organic fruit known as organic roselle which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50397130 Organic rosell purees, a Commodity code, does not align with actual state and local procurement activity in the source data. Recent solicitations tagged under related food-supply codes show sustained demand for canned applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit bars, and mixed grocery items across corrections departments, school districts, and health and human services agencies, but no activity targeting roselle purees or botanical extracts. The Oregon Department of Corrections procured canned applesauce (ITB S-29100-00017453, due July 31, 2026) and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited supplemental food and consumables (IFB HHS0016792, maximum value $4,500,000 over three years), yet neither opportunity nor the remaining recent postings reference roselle-derived products. The code's nominal scope—botanical purees from a West African hibiscus—does not match the concrete work being bought, which centers on mainstream commodity fruits and processed food products for institutional food service.

State and local procurement under food-supply codes remains fragmented across issuing bodies. School districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Austin Independent School District, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Douglas County School System) dominate recent activity, bidding annually for grocery, produce, and specialty items on firm-fixed-price contracts running July 1 through June 30. Corrections departments (Oregon DOC, Texas Department of Criminal Justice) and health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC, Illinois Chief Procurement Office) post less frequently but solicit larger, multi-year line-item awards. Geographic spread spans the South (Georgia, Texas, Connecticut) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon) with secondary activity in the Midwest (Missouri, Illinois). Representative opportunities include Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) covering delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens, Texas HHSC's supplemental food procurement for state hospitals and living centers (IFB HHS0016792, prior due date extended to March 19, 2026 but superseded by a June 2026 follow-on), and Douglas County School System's fresh-produce cooperative buy across 30 Georgia districts (RFP SN 26-004, due March 4, 2026, estimated $4.4 million Area One, $1.1 million Area Two). Buy American and domestic-content preferences appear consistently; school districts increasingly restrict artificial ingredients and apply USDA commodity standards. No recent solicitations reference roselle purees or similar specialty botanicals, indicating the code receives minimal or no applicable state and local procurement traffic.
