UNSPSC 50562705: Non GMO red currant purees

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

UNSPSC 50562705 Non GMO red currant purees (Commodity) covers fresh and processed fruit products for state and local food service, including school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, senior services, and state-supported living centers. The recent opportunities solicited under this code reveal a broader pattern of state and local procurement for shelf-stable and fresh produce rather than specifically red currant purees. Recent solicitations name canned and fresh applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce spanning berries and specialty fruits, and general cafeteria and food-service commodities across multiple issuing bodies. School districts, state corrections departments, state health and human services agencies, county boards of education, and municipal nutrition programs are the primary buyers. Geographic activity spans Georgia, Oregon, Texas, Illinois, and Connecticut, with school nutrition programs and corrections facilities appearing as repeat purchasers across multiple states.

Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issuing an IFB on June 10, 2026, for over 200 line items of fresh produce including berries, with delivery through June 30, 2027; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing an IFB on June 11, 2026, for food and consumable products valued at $1.5 million for the prior period to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia) issuing an IWQ on October 13, 2026, for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items with delivery by December 7, 2026; and the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office issuing multiple RFPs in June and August 2026 for weekly food orders to the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy on brand-specific and brand-or-equal bases. The Oregon Department of Corrections has solicited canned applesauce repeatedly, with ITBs posted in May and July 2026, each covering approximately 1,900 to 4,760 cases at historical prices near $21.84 per case. All opportunities require compliance with Buy American and USDA commodity specifications where applicable, firm fixed pricing, FOB destination delivery, and delivery to designated state or local facilities.
