UNSPSC 50561518: Non GMO delicious apple purees

The variety of non GMO apples known as non GMO delicious apples which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50561518 Non GMO delicious apple purees is a Commodity code that captures state and local government purchases of canned and processed apple products for institutional food service, particularly school nutrition programs and correctional and health-care facility dining operations. Recent solicitations show governments buying both canned applesauce (the dominant product category) and dried apple-based snack items such as fruit bars and crisps. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and state agencies operating food service operations—Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, multiple independent school districts (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Fairfax County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Muscogee County School District, Douglas County School System), and city procurement offices (Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center). School nutrition programs dominate the activity, with smaller volumes from correctional and state hospital food service operations.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and Southwest, with recent solicitations from Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 (posted July 10, 2026, due July 31, 2026) for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at $21.84 per case delivered to Salem, Oregon; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products including apple-based items for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a historical contract value of $1.5 million; and Austin Independent School District's RFP 27RFP004 (posted June 26, 2026, due July 16, 2026) for dried fruit bars and apple crisps for food service warehouse delivery. Multiple school districts—Rockwood R-VI, Fairfax County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System—all posted grocery and produce solicitations in the March–April 2026 window covering school years 2026–2027. Buy American provisions and preference programs (Oregon goods preferences, domestic content minimums at 51 percent for processed products) are standard across most jurisdictions; MBE/CBE preferences apply in some cases such as Bridgeport, Connecticut. Pricing remains firm for contract periods, with delivery to central warehouses or individual school sites required, and payment typically within 30–45 days.
