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, does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually procuring under this code in recent activity. The recent solicitations tagged with this code are food and consumable products for schools, corrections facilities, health and human services agencies, and other public institutions—canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, eggs, grocery staples, and supplemental food items for food service operations. None of the opportunities specifically name lime purees or non-GMO specifications as primary scope. The code's nominal definition does not align with the breadth of food procurement activity the issuing bodies have attached to it, suggesting either a systematic tagging mismatch in state and local procurement systems or a code that has drifted from its intended use.

State and local food service procurement under this code is dominated by school districts, state health and human services agencies, and state corrections departments across multiple regions. Recent opportunities span Oregon (Oregon Department of Corrections canned applesauce bids, ITB S2910000017453 and S2910000016975, due July 31 and June 2, 2026); Texas (Texas Health and Human Services Commission supplemental food for state hospitals and supported living centers, IFB HHS0016792, maximum potential value $4.5 million; Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products, IFB 304T26300CF, approximately 382 line items; Dallas Independent School District various food products RFP JC250079, due April 2, 2026); Georgia (Hancock County Board of Education fresh produce, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System fresh produce, Muscogee County School District produce, Liberty County Board of Education food products, and Douglas County School System food supply via GEC Buying Cooperative, estimated $9 million annually); Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District grocery items and NOI products, bids due April 29, 2026); Connecticut (City of Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center commodities, IFB BNB053266, due June 26, 2026); Illinois (State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office quarterly weekly food orders); and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 term contract, IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026). The issuing bodies are primarily large school districts, state corrections and health agencies, and boards of education using competitive procurement vehicles—ITB, IFB, RFP—with firm fixed pricing, FOB destination delivery, and contract terms running July 1 through June 30 for school-year food service. If pursuing work under this code, verify the actual scope in the RFP before submitting, as the UNSPSC tag does not reliably predict the commodity mix.
