UNSPSC 50564921: Non GMO late navel orange purees

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

UNSPSC 50564921 Non GMO late navel orange purees is a Commodity code covering fruit purees and processed fruit products that state and local governments source for food service operations across school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, aging services, and health and human services institutions. The recent solicitations indexed under this code show little alignment with the code's nominal scope of non-GMO navel orange purees specifically; instead, the issuing bodies are procuring broad food commodity baskets—shelf-stable items, fresh produce, canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, and multi-category consumables—with orange puree appearing in none of the representative opportunities. School districts (Austin ISD, Hancock County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education), state departments of corrections (Oregon, Texas), state health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC, Illinois Veterans Home system), county governments (Gwinnett County, Georgia), and municipalities (City of Bridgeport) are active under this code tier. The issuing bodies span food service for K–12 nutrition programs, incarcerated populations, veterans facilities, state supported living centers, senior services, and institutional cafeteria operations.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and West, with recent solicitations from Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County, State of Georgia statewide), Texas (HHSC, Department of Criminal Justice, Austin ISD), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Illinois (Veterans Home at Quincy), and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport). Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote (IWQ) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026; the Texas HHSC Invitation for Bid (IFB HHS0017449) for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center, with proposals due July 13, 2026 and a historical contract value of $1.5 million annually; and the Oregon Department of Corrections Invitation to Bid (ITB S-29100-00017453) for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026 with historical pricing at $21.84 per case. The code shows strong procurement activity but no recent opportunities specifically matching non-GMO navel orange purees; vendors pursuing this code should expect to compete on general food commodity supply capability, compliance with USDA standards and Buy American provisions, delivery logistics to multiple institutional sites, and brand-or-equal substitution frameworks common in state and local food service procurement.
