UNSPSC 50396402: Organic early champagne rhubarb purees

The variety of organic rhubarb known as organic early champagne rhubarb which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50396402 Organic early champagne rhubarb purees is a Commodity code that nominally describes specialty produce items, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows no relevant solicitations for organic rhubarb purees. The source records ten recent opportunities tagged under this code spanning May through October 2026, and they cover generic food and consumable procurement — shelf-stable pantry staples, canned applesauce, fresh produce varieties, frozen proteins, dairy products, and cafeteria supplies for correctional facilities, school districts, senior services, veterans homes, state hospitals, and supported living centers. The actual work being bought under this code in state and local markets is bulk food service supply for institutional kitchens and food banks, not specialty organic produce lines. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state procurement offices (Texas HHSC, Texas TDCJ, Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), county boards of education and school districts (Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Gwinnett County), city procurement departments (Bridgeport, Connecticut), and county social services departments. Repeat activity appears most often from state departments managing food service for correctional, hospital, and veterans-care settings.

The code shows recent procurement activity concentrated in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, and Connecticut. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas HHSC's brand-specific and brand-or-equal food procurement for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' canned applesauce procurement (ITB S-29100-00017453, due July 31, 2026, and S2910000016975, due June 2, 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for shelf-stable food items for senior services (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026), the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (two solicitations, one brand-specific and one brand-or-equal, both due August 24, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education's fresh produce procurement for the 2026–27 school year (IFB SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026), Austin Independent School District's dried fruit bars and apple crisps RFP (27RFP004, due July 16, 2026), the City of Bridgeport Board of Education's commodities procurement covering eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and produce (IFB BNB053266, due June 26, 2026), and the Texas Comptroller's TDCJ cafeteria food products IFB covering proteins, specialty entrees, and staples across five warehouse regions (IFB 304T-26-300CF, due May 4, 2026). The code shows no direct alignment with specialty organic rhubarb purees; vendors pursuing this code should expect institutional bulk food service demand, not specialty produce lines.
