UNSPSC 50566101: Non GMO american red raspberry purees

The variety of non GMO raspberries known as non GMO american red raspberries which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50566101 Non GMO american red raspberry purees is a Commodity code covering specialty fruit products procured by state and local food service operations — principally school districts, state agency cafeterias, corrections and veterans facilities, and county social services programs. The code captures fresh-equivalent fruit concentrates and purees used in institutional meal planning, though recent state and local solicitations under this specific code show limited direct hits; instead, procurement activity centers on broader fresh-produce contracts and general commodity food buys that nest fruit products within larger line-item rosters. School districts, state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies, county boards of education, and municipal food service operations drive demand. Work ranges from single-item purchases of specialty fruit products to multi-line-item food service RFPs and IFBs where raspberry purees compete alongside applesauce, dried fruit bars, and conventional fresh produce. Contracts typically specify USDA compliance, shelf-life certification, sustainability (organic or non-GMO attestation where applicable), and domestic-content preferences under the Buy American provision or state-equivalent rules.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia, Oregon, Texas, Illinois, and Connecticut. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two ITBs for canned applesauce (May and July 2026, ITB S-29100-00017453 and S2910000016975, due June 2 and July 31 respectively) seeking approximately 1,900–4,760 cases; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Department of State Health Services jointly posted an IFB for supplemental food and consumables spanning 210 line items including fruits and condiments for state hospitals and supported living centers (IFB HHS0016792V2, due March 19, 2026, with a potential contract value of $4.5 million over three years); and Austin Independent School District issued an RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (RFP 27RFP004, due July 16, 2026). Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia requested quotes for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including fruit products (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026). The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office and City of Bridgeport, Connecticut have posted recurring weekly food orders for state facilities and school nutrition centers. Non-GMO or organic specification language does not appear prominently in the recent opportunity summaries, suggesting that when raspberry purees are procured, they flow through general commodity contracts rather than specialty-item solicitations; vendors competing on this code should monitor multi-product food service RFPs and IFBs where fruit and vegetable items are bundled.
