UNSPSC 50566300: Non GMO rose hip purees

The type of non GMO rose hips known as non GMO rose hips which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50566300 Non GMO rose hip purees is a Class code that encompasses shelf-stable fruit products and purees state and local governments procure for institutional food service. However, the recent opportunities tagged with this code show minimal alignment with rose hip purees specifically; instead, they document a broad institutional food-procurement market spanning canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, cafeteria staples, and supplemental food supplies for correctional facilities, schools, senior services, state hospitals, and supported living centers. The issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois), county boards of education and commissioners (Gwinnett County, Hancock County, Bridgeport Board of Education), school districts (Austin ISD), and state-supported institutional facilities. Price-per-unit competition is standard, with awards typically made to the lowest responsive bidder or on best-value criteria that weigh specification compliance, vendor performance, and delivery capability.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut. Representative opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' October 2026 IFQ for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces) with quotes due October 19, 2026; Oregon Department of Corrections' July 2026 ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at historical pricing of $21.84 per case with a 10% combined state-of-origin and resident-bidder preference; the State of Illinois' multiple quarterly food procurements for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy on brand-specific and brand-or-equal terms; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's June 2026 IFB for supplemental food and consumables to state hospitals and supported living centers statewide with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years. Austin ISD's June 2026 RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps and the City of Bridgeport's June 2026 commodities procurement for the Board of Education Nutrition Center round out the geographic spread. Most solicitations enforce Buy American provisions (minimum 51% domestic content for processed products), require FOB destination delivery with prepaid freight, and mandate compliance with USDA standards and FDA regulations.
