UNSPSC 50562704: Non GMO black currant purees

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

UNSPSC 50562704 Non GMO black currant purees is a Commodity code that describes specialty fruit purees produced without genetically modified organisms. State and local governments purchasing under this code buy shelf-stable and refrigerated fruit products for food service operations, including school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, senior services, and state-supported living centers. The recent solicitations in the source do not include a direct procurement for non-GMO black currant purees; instead, they show state and local buyers purchasing canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and broader food commodity baskets that encompass multiple fruit and vegetable items. The issuing bodies soliciting food products include county boards of education (Hancock County, Georgia; Bridgeport, Connecticut), state corrections and health agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Veterans Home system, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), city and county nutrition departments (Gwinnett County, Georgia; City of Bridgeport), and independent school districts (Austin Independent School District, Texas). Many of these buyers issue recurring, term-based contracts with annual renewal options.

The code shows recent activity concentrated in the South and West, with notable solicitations from Georgia (Hancock County Schools, Gwinnett County), Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, Austin ISD), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Illinois (Veterans Home at Quincy), and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport). Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned fruit applesauce posted July 10, 2026 (bids due July 31, 2026) for approximately 4,760 cases with a historical price of $21.84 per case; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables posted May 19, 2026 (bids due March 19, 2026, a date that has passed) covering 210 line items of fresh, frozen, and dry food products with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years; and Austin Independent School District's RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps posted June 26, 2026 (proposals due July 16, 2026). The code shows low direct activity for non-GMO black currant purees specifically; puree procurement appears embedded within broader commodity baskets rather than as a standalone line item, indicating that suppliers pursuing this code should monitor multi-item food service solicitations from state agencies and school districts rather than expect dedicated single-product opportunities.
