UNSPSC 50397204: Organic viking chokeberry purees

The variety of organic chokeberries known as organic viking chokeberries which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50397204 Organic viking chokeberry purees, a Commodity code, nominally designates a narrow fruit-product class, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show little activity consistent with that specification. The recent-opportunities block contains no procurements for organic chokeberry purees. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span general fruit and food procurement—canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, eggs, and broader grocery and food-service supplies. State and local governments are using this code to solicit food products for corrections facilities, school nutrition programs, state health and human services centers, and district-wide food service operations across multiple categories and sourcing models.

The issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois), school districts (Austin ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Hancock County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Dallas ISD), counties (Douglas County School System, Georgia), and municipalities (City of Bridgeport). School nutrition programs and correctional institutions dominate the activity. Geographic spread includes Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, DISD, multiple school districts), Georgia (multiple school districts, state procurement), Oregon (DOC), Illinois (state), Connecticut (Bridgeport), Missouri (Rockwood), and Virginia (Fairfax County). Representative recent opportunities include Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, bids due July 31, 2026), Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026), and Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 through GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts (estimated $5.5 million annual spend, proposals due March 4, 2026). The code shows consistent activity but with substantial mismatch between its nominal scope and the actual procurement mix—the "organic chokeberry" specification does not reflect what state and local buyers are actually soliciting under this classification.
