UNSPSC 50562805: Non GMO gundila date purees

The variety of non GMO dates known as non GMO gundila dates which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50562805 Non GMO gundila date purees (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code. The opportunities posted under 50562805 involve canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and comprehensive food service supply contracts—none of which are gundila date purees or gundila products of any kind. The code's nominal scope appears mismatched to the actual procurement activity, making it unclear whether 50562805 is correctly applied by the issuing jurisdictions or whether the taxonomy entry itself contains an error.

State and local procurement offices issuing food service contracts—particularly school districts, state corrections departments, and state health and human services agencies—are using this code tag for general fruit and produce procurement. Recent opportunities span the Oregon Department of Corrections (canned applesauce, ITB S-29100-00017453, due July 31, 2026); Austin Independent School District (dried fruit bars and apple crisps, RFP 27RFP004, due July 16, 2026); the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office (quarterly food orders, brand-specific); Texas Health and Human Services Commission (food and consumable products for state supported living centers, IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia (fresh produce spanning 200+ line items, IFB SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026); and the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut (commodities for the Board of Education Nutrition Center, IFB BNB053266, due June 26, 2026). School districts in Texas, Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia have also issued multiple RFPs and IFBs for grocery items, fresh produce, and food supply and distribution contracts for the 2026-27 school year. The mix of issuing bodies reflects heavy participation from K-12 school districts, state departments of corrections and health services, and a few municipal education boards. Activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Connecticut, Virginia, Missouri, and Illinois, with sporadic postings elsewhere. Given the mismatch between the code definition and actual procurement content, this code warrants verification before pursuing opportunities tagged under it.
