UNSPSC 50564508: Non GMO cavaillon melon purees

The variety of non GMO melons known as non GMO cavaillon melons which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50564508 Non GMO cavaillon melon purees is a Commodity code that encompasses shelf-stable and fresh fruit products for institutional food service, though recent state and local opportunities show minimal direct activity under this specific designation. The code covers fruit purees and processed fruit items supplied to schools, corrections facilities, senior services, and state health and human services institutions. Issuing bodies soliciting broadly in this category include state departments of corrections, state and county boards of education, county senior services departments, and state health and human services commissions. While the code nominally designates non-GMO cavaillon melon purees, recent solicitations tracked under adjacent commodity codes reveal that state and local governments actually procure a much broader range of fruit products—including canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, and mixed commodity food items—often as part of larger food service contracts rather than as standalone melon-puree purchases.

Geographic spread across recent opportunities spans Georgia (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Hancock County Board of Education), Illinois (State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office for veterans homes), Oregon (Oregon Department of Corrections), Texas (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Austin Independent School District), and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport Board of Education). The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two canned applesauce ITBs in May and July 2026 with bids due June 2, 2026 and July 31, 2026 respectively, each for approximately 1,900–4,760 cases at historical pricing around $21.83–$21.84 per case. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited supplemental food and consumables (IFB HHS0016792V2, due March 19, 2026) with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years across 210 line items serving state hospitals and supported living centers statewide. Gwinnett County requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and proteins (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026), and the State of Illinois issued multiple weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy on brand-specific and brand-or-equal terms (due August 24, 2026). The code itself shows little direct activity; vendors pursuing melon-puree or specialty fruit-puree sales should monitor broader institutional food service categories and cooperative purchasing vehicles where fruit products appear as line items within larger multi-category food solicitations.
