UNSPSC 50564546: Non GMO royal star melon purees

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

UNSPSC 50564546 Non GMO royal star melon purees (Commodity) covers specialized fresh fruit products purchased by state and local food service operations, though recent state and local solicitation activity under this specific code is minimal. The nine recent opportunities in the dataset span broader fresh produce, canned fruit, and food commodities procurement across state departments, county governments, school districts, and facilities serving vulnerable populations—but none explicitly name royal star melon purees or non-GMO melon products. Instead, the recent record shows state and local buying concentrated in staple food procurement: the Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC) has issued multiple ITBs for canned applesauce; the State of Illinois has solicited weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission has requested supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and supported living centers; and school districts including Austin Independent School District and Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia have solicited fresh produce and specialty fruit products for child nutrition programs. The issuing bodies are predominantly state departments managing correctional, veterans, and health facilities, alongside county school nutrition programs and municipal education boards.

Geographic activity centers on Texas, Illinois, Oregon, Georgia, and Connecticut, with additional solicitations from state procurement offices serving statewide food distribution needs. Representative recent opportunities include ODOC's June 2026 canned fruit applesauce ITB (approximately 1,904 cases, $41,530 estimated value based on historical pricing of $21.83 per case, FOB Destination to Salem distribution center, with a five percent state-of-origin preference applied); the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's brand-specific and brand-or-equal food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (proposals due August 24, 2026, with standard state insurance and prevailing wage requirements); and the Texas HHSC supplemental food and consumables procurement (210 line items, $4.5 million potential three-year value across state hospitals and supported living centers, with responses due March 19, 2026). Hancock County Schools in Georgia solicited fresh produce with over 200 line items across apples, berries, melons, citrus, and specialty items for the 2026–27 school year (sealed bids due June 26, 2026, with Buy American provisions requiring 51 percent domestic content). No recent solicitations explicitly reference non-GMO royal star melon purees or similar proprietary melon products, indicating the code may not align with current procurement patterns in this dataset.
