UNSPSC 50564000: Non GMO lime purees

The type of non GMO limes known as non GMO limes which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50564000 Non GMO lime purees, a Class code, nominally describes specialty fruit products, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not reflect lime purees or any citrus products. Instead, the code carries a broad mix of shelf-stable and fresh food items for institutional food service — canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce across multiple varieties, eggs, poultry, dairy, proteins, and consumable food-service supplies. School districts, county boards of education, state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies, and city boards of education issue under this code. Issuing bodies include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia), the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office (weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), the Oregon Department of Corrections, Austin Independent School District (Texas), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), the City of Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Recent solicitations span food procurement for senior services, veteran facilities, correctional institutions, state supported living centers, public schools, and cafeteria operations. Pricing is typically firm fixed on a per-unit basis with all-inclusive delivery charges FOB destination, and awards generally go to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder or the highest best-value response.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and Southwest: Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County), Illinois (state-level), Oregon (state-level), Texas (multiple state agencies and school districts), and Connecticut (city-level). Representative recent opportunities include the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' October 2026 informal written quote (IWQ) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, canned vegetables) with quotes due October 19, 2026, the Oregon Department of Corrections' July 2026 ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with bids due July 31, 2026, and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for food and consumable products to the El Paso State Supported Living Center with proposals due July 13, 2026. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB (304T26300CF) for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic distribution areas had a response deadline of May 4, 2026 (extended via addendum). Buy American provisions and prevailing wage compliance appear in several solicitations; Oregon and Georgia apply local vendor preferences (5–10 percent combined in Oregon; Georgia requires compliance with applicable state and federal standards). Institutional food service procurement under this code runs year-round with contract terms typically spanning one to two years plus optional renewal periods.
