UNSPSC 50567004: Non GMO viking chokeberry purees

The variety of non GMO chokeberries known as non GMO viking chokeberries which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50567004 Non GMO viking chokeberry purees is a Commodity code that covers specialty fruit purees and related processed fruit products used in food service and institutional nutrition programs. State and local procurement under this code reflects a broader ecosystem of food-service solicitations for institutional and school-based operations, though recent opportunities tagged to this specific code show limited direct activity; the nine recent state and local opportunities in the dataset span fresh produce, canned fruit, dried fruit bars, and broader food commodities, with most opportunities concentrated in school nutrition, corrections, aging services, and state health agencies rather than chokeberry purees specifically. Issuing bodies include county boards of education and school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Austin Independent School District in Texas, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state corrections and health departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois), county government service departments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), and municipal procurement offices (City of Bridgeport). The dominant pattern reflects institutional food service contracting for volume purchases with firm fixed pricing, delivery to centralized warehouses or distribution centers, and compliance with Buy American provisions and USDA commodity standards.

Geographic spread spans the South and Southwest, with concentrated recent activity in Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County, State of Georgia), Texas (Austin ISD, HHSC El Paso, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), Illinois (State of Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), Oregon (Oregon Department of Corrections), and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport). Representative recent solicitations include Hancock County Board of Education's fresh produce IFB due June 26, 2026, spanning over 200 line items of apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, and specialty fruits for the 2026-27 school year; Oregon Department of Corrections' canned applesauce ITB (due June 2, 2026) for approximately 1,904 cases with a five percent Oregon-goods and resident-bidder preference; Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumables IFB (due March 19, 2026) covering 210 line items across fresh, frozen, and dry products for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide with a maximum potential contract value of $4.5 million over three years; and Texas Department of Criminal Justice's cafeteria food products IFB (due May 4, 2026, extended from April 21) spanning approximately 382 line items of proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, and staples across five geographic distribution areas. Most opportunities use IFB or ITB notice types, with response windows typically two to four weeks.
