UNSPSC 50561530: Non GMO gladstone apple purees

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

UNSPSC 50561530 Non GMO gladstone apple purees is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure canned and processed apple products for institutional food service — primarily applesauce, dried fruit bars, and apple crisps delivered to school districts, corrections facilities, health and human services institutions, and state-operated living centers. Recent solicitations show purchasing bodies sourcing standardized canned applesauce meeting USDA 2011 commodity specifications, sweetened or unsweetened, packed in juice or light syrup with minimum one-year shelf life; dried fruit products for school breakfast and lunch programs; and fresh or processed apple items as part of broader produce contracts. The issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas HHSC, Illinois CPO), school districts (Austin ISD, Fairfax County, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham, Dallas ISD), and county and regional school systems (Hancock County, Douglas County, Muscogee County), with school nutrition programs driving the majority of recent volume across multiple states. Geographic activity centers on Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia, with Texas health and human services institutions and Georgia school districts showing the heaviest recent posting frequency.
