UNSPSC 50565751: Non GMO marked black plum purees

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

UNSPSC 50565751 Non GMO marked black plum purees is a Commodity code, but the recent solicitations in this cluster reveal that state and local governments are buying a much broader range of food products than the code name suggests. The solicitations show school districts, county departments, state corrections and health agencies, and municipal nutrition programs sourcing shelf-stable and fresh produce items—canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce across multiple varieties, frozen entrees, dairy, proteins, and other cafeteria staples—often under "brand or equal" specifications that permit substitution of functionally equivalent products for named items. The work consists of competitive bidding and RFQ cycles for food supply contracts, typically with firm fixed pricing, FOB destination delivery to school or institutional locations, compliance with USDA commodity grades and FDA standards, and contract terms ranging from one to three years with optional renewals. Issuing bodies span county school nutrition programs, state departments of corrections and health services, municipal school boards, state-supported living centers, and county social service departments. Repeat buyers include the State of Illinois (multiple quarterly food orders to the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), the Oregon Department of Corrections (canned applesauce procurements), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (supplemental food and consumables statewide).

Recent activity is concentrated in the Southeast and Southwest, with visible solicitations from Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County Schools, State of Georgia), Texas (Austin ISD, HHSC El Paso, TDCJ statewide), Connecticut (City of Bridgeport), Oregon (ODOC), and Illinois (state-level veterans home supply). Representative solicitations include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IFQ for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, and vegetables due October 19, 2026; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's brand-or-equal RFP for weekly food orders to the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (September–December FY-27), due August 24, 2026; the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce, due July 31, 2026, with a historical award price of $21.84 per case to Robbins Sales; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide spanning 210 line items with a maximum potential contract value of $4.5 million over three years, due March 19, 2026. Many contracts require compliance with Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed foods), HACCP plans, E-Verify authorization, commercial general liability insurance, and prevailing wage compliance where applicable.
