The variety of non GMO plums known as non GMO aurora plums which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50565703 Non GMO aurora plum purees, a Commodity code, describes specialty fruit purées and processed fruit products that state and local governments purchase for institutional food service operations, particularly school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and senior services. Recent solicitations show this code capturing a broader scope than the nominal product name alone: state and local buyers are procuring shelf-stable and fresh fruit products, canned and frozen fruit items, dried fruit products, and fresh produce across multiple fruit categories for centralized food distribution to institutional kitchens and nutrition centers. The issuing bodies span school districts (Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), county purchasing offices (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), and municipal departments (City of Bridgeport). State procurement offices, corrections systems, and school nutrition departments appear as repeat buyers across multiple recent opportunities.

Activity concentrates in the Southeast (Georgia, Connecticut), Southwest (Texas, Oregon), and Midwest (Illinois), with the most recent opportunities posted between May and October 2026. Representative recent solicitations include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 requesting approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned fruits and vegetables with quotes due October 19, 2026, and the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases BNB053266 solicitation for 115 commodity line items including fruit and vegetable products for the school nutrition center, with electronic bids due June 26, 2026.

Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued a high-value IFB (HHS0016792v2) for supplemental food and consumables including fresh, frozen, and canned fruit products to serve state hospitals and supported living centers statewide, with a maximum potential contract value of $4.5 million over three years and a bid deadline of March 19, 2026.
