UNSPSC 50564548: Non GMO santa claus melon purees

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

UNSPSC 50564548 Non GMO santa claus melon purees (Commodity) covers specialty processed fruit products for institutional food service, though recent state and local activity shows that this specific code is being applied to a much broader range of commodities than the narrow scope its name suggests. The actual buying under the code spans shelf-stable food staples, fresh produce, canned fruits and applesauce, dried fruit bars, and multi-category food and consumable supplies for schools, correctional facilities, health and human services agencies, and county nutrition programs. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, State of Georgia), counties (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Hancock County Board of Education), school districts (Austin Independent School District, Bridgeport Board of Education), and municipalities (City of Bridgeport). Texas agencies and Georgia appear as repeat buyers. The code sees activity across the South and West; Texas dominates recent volume with multiple HHSC, TDCJ, and CPA solicitations, while Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, and Connecticut also show recent postings.

Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0016792v2 for supplemental food and consumable products (210 line items, fresh through dry goods, state hospitals and state supported living centers statewide, bid due March 19, 2026, estimated value $4.5 million over three years), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products IFB 304T26300CF (approximately 382 line items, proteins through miscellaneous staples, six TDCJ distribution points across Texas, bid due May 4, 2026), the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, and vegetables (IWQ 140229, quote due October 19, 2026), and the Hancock County Board of Education's fresh produce bid for 2026-27 (over 200 line items spanning apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, and specialty items, delivery to three school locations, bid due June 26, 2026). Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITBs for canned applesauce (S-29100-00017453 and S2910000016975, approximately 4,760 and 1,904 cases respectively at $21.84 and $21.827 per case historically, offering a combined 10 percent preference for Oregon goods and resident bidders). The Illinois Chief Procurement Office solicited weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy under both brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications (multiple quarterly procurements, proposals due August 24, 2026 and June 17, 2026). Buy American and domestic-content provisions appear in school and food service RFQs; prevailing wage, insurance, and state prompt payment act requirements are standard across Texas and Illinois procurements.
