UNSPSC 50564920: Non GMO kona orange purees

The variety of non GMO oranges known as non GMO kona oranges which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50564920 Non GMO kona orange purees is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of shelf-stable and specialty fruit products, particularly canned and processed fruits delivered to food service operations. Recent solicitations show the code encompassing broader fruit procurement activity beyond the nominal kona orange scope — state and local agencies are buying canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce assortments, and general food and consumable products for nutrition centers, correctional facilities, schools, and state-supported living centers. Issuing bodies span state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), county boards of education (Hancock County Board of Education, Gwinnett County), cities (City of Bridgeport), independent school districts (Austin Independent School District), and state institutions (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy, Texas HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center). Purchase volumes are substantial — the Texas HHSC and DSHS joint procurement for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers carries a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years; the Oregon Department of Corrections applesauce bids span multiple truck loads at roughly $41,530 per procurement cycle; and the Texas TDCJ cafeteria food products RFQ covers approximately 382 line items across five geographic distribution areas.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and West, with solicitations posted from Georgia, Illinois, Texas, Connecticut, and Oregon between May and October 2026. The Oregon Department of Corrections has posted repeated ITBs for canned fruit applesauce (S2910000016975 due June 2, 2026, and S2910000017453 due July 31, 2026), with a historical award price of approximately $21.83–$21.84 per case to vendors including MJ Kellner and Robbins Sales, indicating standing demand with firm pricing expectations. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office issued multiple brand-specific and brand-or-equal weekly food order RFPs for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy across quarterly cycles (due June 17, August 24, and comparable dates). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted IFBs for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026, with a prior-period guideline value of $1.5 million) and statewide supplemental food and consumables (HHS0016792v2, due March 19, 2026, $4.5 million maximum over three years). Procurement methods vary — ITBs and RFQs dominate for commodity items, RFPs for specialized products like dried fruit bars. Oregon offers a combined 10% state-goods preference (5% for Oregon processing plus 5% for Oregon headquarters), and most solicitations require FDA, USDA, and Buy American compliance with minimum insurance thresholds of $500,000 to $2 million general commercial liability depending on the issuing body.
