UNSPSC 50562405: Non GMO black republic cherry purees

The variety of non GMO cherries known as non GMO black republic cherries which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50562405 Non GMO black republic cherry purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local activity directly aligned with the code's nominal scope. The one solicitation tagged under this code—Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453, posted July 10, 2026, with bids due July 31, 2026—actually solicits canned fruit applesauce, not cherry purees. The mismatch suggests tagging imprecision in the source record rather than active procurement demand for non-GMO black republic cherry purees specifically. State and local governments buying under or near this code tier are acquiring shelf-stable fruit products for institutional food service—canned applesauce and other fruit preserves in bulk case quantities, typically 40,000-plus pounds per truckload, delivered FOB destination to central distribution facilities or school warehouses. Issuing bodies span state corrections departments, school districts, and health and human services agencies. The code shows no geographic concentration; the single applesauce opportunity is in Oregon, and the broader fruit-product procurement activity visible in related codes spans Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, and Missouri school districts and state agencies.

The Oregon Department of Corrections applesauce procurement illustrates the typical deal structure under this commodity tier: sealed ITB with firm fixed pricing on a per-case basis (historical award at $21.84 per case to Robbins Sales in June 2026), five-truck delivery schedule over nine months, compliance with USDA commodity specs and FDA standards, one-year minimum shelf life, FOB destination with freight prepaid by contractor, and $1,000,000 commercial general liability insurance required. Oregon applies a combined 10 percent preference—5 percent for goods fabricated or processed entirely within Oregon, 5 percent for Oregon-headquartered bidders. No protests are permitted. The code sees episodic rather than continuous solicitation activity; broader procurement at the state and local level for applesauce, dried fruit bars, and specialty produce is tagged under related codes with higher recent volume. This code itself presents a narrow, low-frequency opportunity window.
