UNSPSC 50561641 Non GMO queen apricot purees is a Commodity code covering shelf-stable fruit purees and processed fruit products that state and local governments buy for food service, nutrition programs, and institutional feeding operations. The solicitations under this code show state agencies, county governments, school districts, and special-purpose facilities (corrections, veterans homes, state supported living centers) purchasing canned and processed fruit items—applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and broader food commodity bundles—for cafeteria operations, emergency food assistance, and meal programs. Issuing bodies include the Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Hancock County Board of Education, Austin Independent School District, City of Bridgeport, and other state agencies and school nutrition departments. Vendors responding to these codes typically hold food-service distribution licenses, USDA compliance certifications, product liability insurance, and existing relationships with state procurement systems; many procurements require Buy American compliance, prevailing wage certifications where applicable, and demonstrated ability to maintain cold-chain logistics and emergency delivery backup capacity.

Recent opportunities cluster in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Illinois, and Connecticut, with activity spanning June through October 2026. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing ITBs for canned applesauce (1,904 to 4,760 cases) with historical unit pricing around $21.83 per case and a 10% Oregon-vendor preference (ITB S2910000016975 due June 2, 2026, and ITB S2910000017453 due July 31, 2026); the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Department of State Health Services issuing an IFB for supplemental food and consumables across 210 line items with a maximum three-year contract value of $4,500,000 (IFB HHS0016792v2, response deadline March 19, 2026); the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requesting informal written quotes for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items with delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center by December 7, 2026 (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026); and the Austin Independent School District soliciting proposals for dried fruit bars and apple crisps for school food service delivery to the central warehouse (RFP 27RFP004, due July 16, 2026). Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy posted multiple quarterly food orders under brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications (June and August 2026 cycles). Pricing is typically fixed for the contract term with adjustments tied to CPI or federal minimum wage changes; awards favor lowest responsive and responsible bidders or best-value evaluation combining price, vendor performance, and specification compliance, with many procurements permitting single or multiple awards by line item.
