UNSPSC 50565401: Non GMO american persimmo purees

The variety of non GMO persimmons known as non GMO american persimmon which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50565401 Non GMO american persimmon purees (Commodity) spans canned and fresh fruit products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service—primarily school nutrition programs, state corrections facilities, and state health and human services agencies. The recent solicitations under this code reveal a broader pattern: issuing bodies are purchasing canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, eggs, and general food commodities rather than persimmon purees specifically, indicating the code's nominal scope diverges from actual procurement activity. The mix of issuing bodies is heavily weighted toward K-12 school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Austin ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Hancock County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Liberty County Schools, Muscogee County Schools, Douglas County Schools, and Dallas ISD), with secondary activity from state corrections (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state health agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office), and municipal education systems (Bridgeport Board of Education). School districts dominate the opportunities block, reflecting institutional food service as the primary end-user for commodity fruit products.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with secondary presence in Missouri, Connecticut, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (bids due July 31, 2026, with a 10% combined Oregon goods and resident-bidder preference), Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 covering 45 schools and distribution kitchens (sealed bids due April 27, 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0016792 for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers statewide with an estimated $4.5 million three-year value (original bid deadline February 23, 2026, with a two-addendum process). Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across Georgia (sealed proposals due March 4, 2026) shows the multi-jurisdictional cooperative purchasing model common in this space. The code shows substantial recent activity, but the mismatch between the nominal "non-GMO American persimmon purees" and the actual procurement of canned applesauce, general produce, and broad food commodities signals either a classification error in tagging or that persimmon purees represent a negligible line item within broader fruit and produce buys—worth flagging for scope verification before pursuit.
