UNSPSC 50561710: Non GMO manzano banana purees

The variety of non GMO bananas known as non GMO manzano bananas which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50561710 Non-GMO manzano banana purees, a Commodity code, does not reflect the recent state and local contracting activity associated with this taxonomy entry. The recent opportunities in the source are tagged with this code but soliciting shelf-stable foods, canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and cafeteria or institutional food service products—none of which are banana purees or fruit purees. The code itself names a specific processed-fruit product line, but the opportunities posted under it over the past five months span general food procurement for correctional facilities, state-supported living centers, schools, senior services, veterans' homes, and education departments across multiple states. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being bought suggests either tagging inconsistency in source systems or that banana purees are not a material or frequent line item in current state and local food procurement.

The issuing bodies range across state departments (Texas HHSC, Texas Comptroller on behalf of TDCJ, State of Georgia, State of Illinois, Oregon Department of Corrections), county boards (Gwinnett County, Hancock County in Georgia), school districts (Austin Independent School District, Bridgeport Board of Education), and municipal agencies (City of Bridgeport). Opportunities cluster in the Southeast and Midwest, with activity in Georgia, Illinois, Texas, Connecticut, and Oregon. Representative recent procurements include Gwinnett County's October 2026 informal written quote for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (response due October 19, 2026); the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's August 2026 brand-or-equal and brand-specific weekly food order RFPs for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (due August 24, 2026); and the Oregon Department of Corrections' July 2026 ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce delivered to Salem (due July 31, 2026). If banana purees are a contracted commodity at all under this code, they represent a minor component of institutional food service procurement rather than a primary focus.
