UNSPSC 50565709: Non GMO betty anne plum purees

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

UNSPSC 50565709 Non GMO betty anne plum purees, a Commodity code, describes specialized fruit puree products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service. Recent opportunities, however, show that the code captures a much broader range of shelf-stable and fresh food items than the code name alone suggests. Gwinnett County's October 2026 informal written quote (IWQ 140229) sought approximately 1,062 cases of mixed food items—peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, and canned vegetables—for the Department of Community Services, not plum purees specifically. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office has issued multiple weekly food-service RFPs for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy covering the same period, with brand-specific and brand-or-equal variants. The Oregon Department of Corrections has solicited canned applesauce in ITBs (May 2026, July 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission has issued large-scale IFBs for mixed food and consumable products serving state hospitals and supported living centers across multiple sites. Austin Independent School District requested proposals for dried fruit bars and apple crisps under RFP 27RFP004 in June 2026, and Hancock County Board of Education sought fresh produce for the 2026–27 school year under IFB SN002-2027 in June 2026. Issuing bodies span state agencies (Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas), county governments (Gwinnett, Hancock), school districts (Austin ISD, Bridgeport Board of Education), and specialized institutional operators (corrections departments, health and human services commissions). The code sees activity across multiple states, with the most recent volume concentrated in Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, and Connecticut.

State procurement offices, county purchasing divisions, and school nutrition administrators are the primary buyers under this code. Geographic spread is national, with recent solicitations from Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Connecticut, and other states. Representative opportunities include Gwinnett County's October 19, 2026, deadline for shelf-stable food items under informal quote; the State of Illinois' August 24, 2026, weekly food-order RFPs for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy; the Oregon Department of Corrections' July 31, 2026, ITB for canned applesauce with a 10 percent Oregon-based preference; Hancock County Board of Education's June 26, 2026, IFB for fresh produce covering over 200 line items with Buy American requirements; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's March 19, 2026, IFB (HHS0016792v2) for supplemental food and consumables with a maximum potential value of $4,500,000 over three years, serving state hospitals and supported living centers statewide. Contract terms commonly run one to three years with optional renewal periods; delivery is typically FOB Destination with prepaid freight; and Buy American or domestic-content preferences apply in school and state institutional settings. Vendors regularly face pre-bid questions deadlines, insurance requirements ($500,000 to $2,000,000 general liability minimums), USDA grade and specification compliance, and awards based on lowest responsive and responsible bidder or best value. Payment under state contracts is often subject to appropriations and contingent on fund availability.
