UNSPSC 50563003: Non GMO langley gage gooseberry purees

The variety of non GMO gooseberries known as non GMO langley gage gooseberries which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50563003 Non GMO Langley Gage Gooseberry Purees is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are buying under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged with this code span canned fruit applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and broad food service supply for schools, correctional facilities, health and human services centers, and state hospitals — a scope far wider than specialty gooseberry purees and bearing little connection to the code's nominal description. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include school districts (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Hancock County Schools, Rockwood School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Douglas County School System), departments of corrections (Oregon DOC), health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC, Illinois Chief Procurement Office), and boards of education across multiple states. The geographic spread of recent activity spans Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, Connecticut, Illinois, and Colorado, with school nutrition programs and institutional food service driving the majority of solicitation volume. Most activity concentrates in Texas school districts and state agencies, followed by Georgia school systems sourcing fresh produce and eggs through cooperative purchasing arrangements.

Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453, posted July 10, 2026 with response due July 31, 2026, soliciting 4,760 cases of canned applesauce under ODOC's five percent Oregon goods and five percent Oregon-resident bidder preferences; Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323, posted April 6, 2026 with bids due April 27, 2026, for a Master Grocery K-12 term contract supplying 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with four optional renewals; Dallas Independent School District RFP JC250079, posted February 22, 2026 with proposals due April 2, 2026, for various food products including spice and ice cream lots for the 2026-2027 school year; and the Douglas County School System RFP 26-003, posted January 21, 2026 with proposals due February 18, 2026, seeking a main-line food service distributor for approximately 32,000 meals daily across 32 schools with an estimated annual expenditure of approximately nine million dollars. The code shows persistent institutional food service demand but mismatch with its stated commodity focus, signaling either chronic UNSPSC classification error in state procurement systems or a taxonomy problem at the commodity tier.
