UNSPSC 50562605: Non GMO lingonberry purees

The variety of non GMO cranberries known as non GMO lingonberries which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50562605 Non GMO lingonberry purees is a Commodity code. State and local governments buying under this code procure specialized fruit products for institutional food service, particularly school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, health and human services residential centers, and county senior services. The recent solicitation activity shows a broader pattern: jurisdictions are actually buying canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and mixed food and consumable products far more frequently than lingonberry purees specifically. The code appears to capture a niche within institutional fruit procurement, but the recent opportunities block shows no posted solicitations explicitly for non-GMO lingonberry purees. Instead, state and local buying under fruit and produce codes emphasizes commodity staples (applesauce, fresh vegetables, berries in bulk), processed shelf-stable items for long-term storage, and brand-or-equal specifications that allow substitution. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and health and human services, county boards of education and senior services, independent school districts, and municipal departments—all procuring through IFB, RFP, and informal quote methods for multi-month or annual supply agreements.

Geographic activity spans Oregon (Oregon Department of Corrections issued two applesauce ITBs in May and July 2026), Georgia (Gwinnett County and State of Georgia food procurements in June and October 2026), Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, and Austin ISD across May through June 2026), Illinois (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy weekly food orders in June and August 2026), Connecticut (City of Bridgeport Board of Education in June 2026), and other states. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB for canned fruit applesauce (approximately 4,760 cases, July 2026, historical price $21.84 per case), Gwinnett County's informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned products (October 2026 with October 19 deadline), and the Texas HHSC supplemental food and consumables IFB covering 210 line items across state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (March 2026, maximum contract value $4.5 million over three years). The source contains no recent posted opportunity specifically for non-GMO lingonberry purees, suggesting the code may see limited active state and local demand or recent tagging may not reflect actual procurement patterns.
