UNSPSC 50564003: Non GMO mandarin lime purees

The variety of non GMO limes known as non GMO mandarin limes which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50564003 Non GMO mandarin lime purees is a Commodity code that encompasses fresh fruit purees and related processed fruit products sourced for institutional food service operations. However, recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code do not include mandarin lime purees specifically; instead, they reflect a broader institutional produce and food service portfolio spanning canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and general cafeteria commodities. State and local buyers under this code family include county boards of education, state departments of corrections, state veterans homes, state health and human services agencies, school districts, and county senior services departments. The typical procurement spans shelf-stable and refrigerated food items for institutional meal programs, with pricing quoted on per-unit or per-case bases, firm fixed pricing through contract term, and delivery to centralized distribution or food service centers on FOB destination terms with inside delivery common. Award methodology favors lowest responsive and responsible bidder or best value based on price and vendor performance.

Recent opportunities cluster in Georgia, Oregon, Texas, Illinois, and Connecticut. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITBs for canned applesauce in May 2026 (S2910000016975, due June 2, 2026) and July 2026 (S2910000017453, due July 31, 2026), each spanning approximately 1,900–4,760 cases with 5 percent Oregon-goods and Oregon-vendor preferences applied; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice solicited cafeteria food products (IFB 304T-26-300CF, due May 4, 2026) covering 382 line items across multiple warehouse locations; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office issued multiple quarterly brand-specific and brand-or-equal food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (three separate RFP notices issued August 2026, June 2026, and June 2026, each with short response windows of 5 days); Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia requested informal written quotes for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026); and Austin Independent School District solicited dried fruit bars and apple crisps (RFP 27RFP004, due July 16, 2026). The code shows consistent activity under school nutrition procurement, state institutional food service contracts, and senior services operations, though mandarin lime purees as a specific product line do not appear in recent solicitations.
