UNSPSC 50561629: Non GMO king apricot purees

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

UNSPSC 50561629 Non GMO king apricot purees is a Commodity code naming a single shelf-stable fruit product, yet the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it span a broad range of food service procurement — fresh produce, canned fruit, dried fruit bars, dairy, proteins, and general cafeteria commodities — suggesting either inconsistent tagging or vendor-driven misclassification of opportunities. The code sees activity from county boards of education, state corrections departments, state health and human services agencies, city school districts, and county community services departments, all seeking shelf-stable and fresh food supplies for institutional food service, including school nutrition programs, state hospitals, corrections facilities, and senior services. Issuing bodies include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, the State of Illinois, the Oregon Department of Corrections, Austin Independent School District, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Hancock County Board of Education, the City of Bridgeport Connecticut Department of Public Purchases, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, reflecting a mix of county, state, school district, and municipal procurement offices.

Recent opportunities are concentrated in Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut. Representative solicitations include Gwinnett County's IFB for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, and sauces due October 19, 2026; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's brand-specific and brand-or-equal RFPs for weekly food orders to the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy with proposals due August 24, 2026; the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (historical price $21.84 per case) due July 31, 2026; Austin Independent School District's RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for food and consumable products serving state-supported living centers and state health services facilities, with a historical contract value of $1.5 million, due July 13, 2026; Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for over 200 line items of fresh produce for the 2026-27 school year due June 26, 2026; the City of Bridgeport's IFB for 115 line items of commodities including eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products due June 26, 2026; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB for approximately 382 cafeteria food line items across five geographic warehouse locations due May 4, 2026 (extended from April 21).
