UNSPSC 50561558: Non GMO northern spy apple purees

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

UNSPSC 50561558 Non GMO northern spy apple purees is a Commodity code naming a specialized food product that state and local governments buy in limited volumes, typically as a component of broader food service procurement. Review of recent state and local opportunities shows that this code sees virtually no direct solicitation activity; instead, apple purees and similar processed fruit products appear incidentally within much larger food service contracts tagged to broader UNSPSC families covering school nutrition, institutional food supply, and general food commodities. The Oregon Department of Corrections' applesauce procurement (ITB S-29100-00017453, due July 31, 2026) represents the most concrete recent match, calling for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce meeting USDA 2011 commodity specifications, but this is a small component within ODOC's broader food supply activity. Most other recent opportunities in the source—including those from school districts, state health agencies, and correctional facilities—bundle apple products with dozens or hundreds of other food items under generic commodity or food service classifications rather than isolating them by processing method or cultivar.

Geographic activity is concentrated in the South and Mid-Atlantic regions, driven primarily by school nutrition procurements in Georgia, Missouri, Texas, Connecticut, and Virginia. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Dallas ISD, Douglas County Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Austin ISD, Hancock County and Liberty County boards of education, Savannah-Chatham County) and state health agencies (Texas HHSC, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Chief Procurement Office). However, none of these jurisdictions are soliciting non-GMO northern spy apple purees as a standalone commodity; instead, processed fruit products are absorbed into master grocery contracts, food service distribution agreements, and institutional supply arrangements. The specialized cultivar and non-GMO designation specified in this code's name do not appear in the recent opportunities reviewed, suggesting limited or no current state and local demand for this product variant at the Commodity level. Pursuit of this code is not recommended based on current activity.
