UNSPSC 50561602: Non GMO apache apricot purees

The variety of non GMO apricots known as non GMO apache apricots which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50561602 Non GMO apache apricot purees (Commodity) describes processed fruit products, but recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show substantial misalignment with the nominal commodity scope. The recent solicitations center on canned applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, and broader food supply contracts for correctional facilities, schools, health and human services agencies, and state hospitals—none of which are apache apricot purees. Oregon Department of Corrections posted an ITB for canned fruit applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026) with a historical price of $21.84 per case and a 10% combined preference for Oregon goods and vendors; Austin Independent School District solicited dried fruit bars and apple crisps under RFP 27RFP004 (due July 16, 2026); and the Illinois Chief Procurement Office issued a solicitation for quarterly weekly food orders with brand-specific requirements (due June 17, 2026). Issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon DOC, Illinois CPO, Texas HHSC), independent school districts (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, Fairfax County, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham, Muscogee County, Hancock County), county education boards (Douglas County, Hancock County), and municipal bodies (City of Bridgeport). School districts dominate the activity, reflecting child nutrition program procurement cycles for the 2026-2027 school year.

Geographically, recent activity concentrates in Texas (multiple HHSC facilities, Dallas ISD, Texas TDCJ), Georgia (multiple school districts including Savannah-Chatham, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Hancock County, Douglas County), and scattered activity in Oregon, Illinois, Connecticut, Virginia, and Missouri. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, with historical value of $1.5 million annually), Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 to supply 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus seven distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026), and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-003 for food supply and distribution services across 32 schools serving 25,500 students with an estimated annual expenditure of $9,000,000 (due February 18, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated commodity definition; procurement under this taxonomy appears to reflect generic food service categorization rather than apache apricot puree demand.
