UNSPSC 50565502: Non GMO golden pineapple purees

The variety of non GMO pineapples known as non GMO golden pineapple which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50565502 Non GMO golden pineapple purees is a Commodity code that encompasses shelf-stable and fresh fruit products for institutional food service, though state and local procurement activity under this specific code is minimal. Recent solicitations tagged with this code actually span a much broader range of food commodities—canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and mixed food supplies for schools, corrections facilities, senior services, veterans homes, and state-supported living centers—rather than pineapple purees specifically. The issuing bodies range across state departments (Illinois, Oregon, Texas, Georgia), county boards of education and commissioners (Hancock County, Georgia; Gwinnett County, Georgia), independent school districts (Austin ISD, Texas), municipal procurement (Bridgeport, Connecticut), and state health and human services agencies. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual commodities being solicited suggests either inconsistent taxonomy application or that pineapple purees represent a negligible line item within broader food procurement categories.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and Southwest, with solicitations from Georgia, Texas, Illinois, Oregon, and Connecticut over the past five months. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (including canned proteins and produce) due October 19, 2026; the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned fruit applesauce (1,904 cases, two truckloads) due June 2, 2026; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy on brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications (multiple quarterly solicitations through August and September 2026); Austin Independent School District's RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for food and consumable products to supply state-supported living centers and state hospitals (210 line items, estimated contract value up to $4.5 million over three years) due March 19, 2026. The code shows limited targeted activity for pineapple purees in particular and warrants verification that procurement opportunities are being tagged correctly before committing substantial business development resources.
