UNSPSC 50566103: Non GMO black raspberry purees

The variety of non GMO raspberries know as non GMO black raspberries which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50566103 Non GMO black raspberry purees (Commodity) classifies specialty fruit purees and concentrates sourced from state and local food-service and institutional nutrition procurement. State and local governments use this code to procure shelf-stable and fresh fruit products for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, senior services, veterans' homes, and state-supported living centers. The recent solicitations show that while the code's nominal scope names non-GMO black raspberry purees specifically, state and local buyers are actually acquiring a broad spectrum of fruit products — canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce including berries and apples, and mixed commodities for food service — often under brand-or-equal or approved-equivalent specifications that permit substitution and sourcing flexibility. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and health and human services, county school boards and school districts, county departments of community services, and municipalities operating nutrition centers. The State of Illinois appears as a repeat buyer, soliciting quarterly weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy under both brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications.

Recent procurement activity spans multiple regions. The State of Oregon Department of Corrections has solicited canned applesauce on two occasions (May and July 2026), with historical awards to Robbins Sales and MJ Kellner at approximately $21.83–$21.83 per case for multi-truckload purchases. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office issued multiple quarterly food-order solicitations between June and August 2026. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia) requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including jelly and sauces with a response deadline of October 19, 2026. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited supplemental food and consumables statewide with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years (March 2026 IFB) and a separate food-and-consumables procurement for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (June 2026). Austin Independent School District issued an RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps with a July 16, 2026 deadline. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) solicited fresh produce for the 2026-27 school year with a June 26, 2026 bid opening. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Board of Education Nutrition Center requested bids on commodities with a June 26, 2026 deadline, requiring Buy American compliance and MBE/CBE certifications. Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, issued an IFB for cafeteria food products across five geographic areas with a May 4, 2026 response deadline (extended via addendum).
