UNSPSC 50564510: Non GMO charleston gray watermelon purees

The variety of non GMO melons known as non GMO charleston gray watermelon which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50564510 Non GMO charleston gray watermelon purees (Commodity) shows limited recent activity directly aligned with the code's nominal scope; recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code do not reflect watermelon puree procurement but instead cover canned and fresh fruit, produce, and broader food service categories. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S-29100-00017453 on July 10, 2026, for canned fruit applesauce (due July 31, 2026), with 4,760 cases delivered to Salem and a historical price of $21.84 per case; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 on June 11, 2026, for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center and other HHSC facilities (due July 13, 2026), with historical contract value of $1.5 million annually. The code sees posting activity across Oregon, Texas, Illinois, Georgia, Connecticut, and Missouri, with school districts, state corrections and health agencies, and state procurement offices as primary issuing bodies. A pattern of produce and prepared fruit procurement dominates recent solicitations—fresh produce bids from Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Douglas County Schools (Georgia), Liberty County Schools (Georgia), and Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia); dried fruit bars and apple crisps from Austin Independent School District (Texas); and canned applesauce and supplemental food contracts from state agencies in Oregon and Texas—but no recent opportunities explicitly call for watermelon purees or close functional equivalents under this code.

The mismatch between the code name and recent opportunity content suggests this code may be misapplied in state and local systems or that demand for non-GMO watermelon purees is currently minimal in the covered jurisdictions. Bidders should verify code assignment in RFP documents before committing resources, as recent activity indicates stronger procurement volume in adjacent produce, fruit concentrate, and prepared-food categories (UNSPSC 50560000 family and peer codes) rather than this specific commodity designation. School district food service contracts dominate the recent pipeline, typically requiring firm-fixed pricing, FOB destination delivery, USDA compliance, Buy American content thresholds, and multi-year renewal options; state agency solicitations follow similar patterns with emphasis on volume supply, insurance requirements, and compliance certifications. Geographic concentration skews toward the South (Georgia school systems particularly active) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon corrections), with Texas state procurement representing substantial contract values.
