UNSPSC 50564600: Non GMO mulberry purees

The variety of non GMO mulberries known as non GMO mulberries which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50564600 Non GMO mulberry purees is a Class code that does not reflect the actual products state and local governments are procuring under this category. Recent opportunities tagged with this code instead solicit canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and broad food service supplies — categories unrelated to mulberry purees. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Austin ISD, Hancock County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Dallas ISD, Douglas County School System, Fairfax County Public Schools), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois), and county school boards (Muscogee County School District), reflecting the food procurement activity of child nutrition programs and state-supported living facilities. The code shows broad food commodities procurement across multiple product lines rather than a specialized or branded category.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, and Connecticut based on recent solicitations. Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce (4,760 cases, response due July 31, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education issuing IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce across 200 line items (response due June 26, 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products for state supported living centers with a prior-period spending guideline of $1.5 million (response due July 13, 2026). The Douglas County School System's RFP 26-003 for food supply and distribution estimated annual expenditure at approximately $9 million across 32 schools. Most recent opportunities use IFB or RFP methods with firm fixed pricing required throughout the contract term and FOB destination delivery. Buy American provisions requiring a minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content appear consistently in school district procurements. The mismatch between the code name and actual procurement scope suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local systems or that this UNSPSC category has become a catch-all for general food service commodities outside its nominal specialty classification.
