UNSPSC 50561617: Non GMO fresno apricot purees

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

UNSPSC 50561617 Non GMO Fresno apricot purees is a Commodity code that represents a narrow product specification within state and local food procurement. Recent opportunities tagged under this code show that state and local governments are actually buying shelf-stable food products including canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, and commodity food items for institutional food service — school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, senior services centers, state-supported living centers, and veterans' homes. The code's nominal focus on Fresno apricot purees does not align closely with the actual recent solicitations, which span broader fruit products and processed goods. Issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, State of Georgia), county boards of education (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), city school districts (Austin Independent School District, City of Bridgeport Board of Education), and state agencies (Texas Comptroller on behalf of TDCJ). The mix reflects heavy school nutrition procurement activity alongside corrections, veterans' services, and social services procurement.

Geographic spread centers on Georgia, Oregon, Texas, Illinois, and Connecticut based on recent postings from June through October 2026. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026 (IWQ 140229); the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's weekly food order for Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy due August 24, 2026 (both brand-specific and brand-or-equal variants); the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026 with a historical award price of $21.84 per case to Robbins Sales; Austin Independent School District's RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and state-supported living centers statewide, covering 210 line items with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years. Institutional food service procurement under this code typically requires compliance with USDA commodity specifications, Buy American provisions where applicable, FOB Destination delivery, firm fixed pricing, and maintenance of commercial general liability insurance in the $500,000 to $2,000,000 range.
