UNSPSC 50481927: Haricot bean purees

The variety of beans known as haricot beans which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50481927 Haricot bean purees is a Commodity code that represents a narrow product line within state and local food procurement, yet the recent solicitation activity shows no direct matches to haricot bean purees or similar legume-based prepared foods. Instead, state and local agencies are procuring haricot beans and related products almost exclusively as components of broader food service contracts—school nutrition programs, state institutional food supply, and correctional facility feeding operations—where bean-based items appear as line items within general grocery or produce solicitations rather than as standalone specialty procurement. The issuing bodies span school districts (elementary through high school systems), state health and human services agencies, state departments of corrections, and state veterans facilities across Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Oregon, Illinois, and Virginia. Food service procurement under higher-tier codes dominates state and local activity: school districts such as Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Burke County Public Schools (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia) issue annual IFBs and RFPs for comprehensive grocery or produce supply; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Department of State Health Services issue statewide solicitations for food and consumable products serving multiple hospitals and state supported living centers; and the Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Department of Criminal Justice procure institutional food supplies through competitive bids.

The geographic concentration of recent activity centers on Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Oregon, and Virginia, with scattered activity in Illinois. Representative recent opportunities illustrate the pattern: the Texas HHSC's IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026) solicits food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a prior-period value of $1.5 million; the Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 (due June 15, 2026) seeks comprehensive food products including fresh and frozen produce, meat, dairy, and condiments for four school locations; the Douglas County School System's RFP 26-003 (due February 18, 2026) seeks a main-line food service distributor for approximately $9 million annually across 32 schools serving 25,500 students; and the Rockwood School District's NUTRIKIDS-based grocery solicitations (due April 29, 2026) cover over 900 line items across multiple categories. Haricot bean purees as a standalone specialty commodity show negligible recent procurement activity; the code's scope appears orthogonal to the state and local food service market as currently active, where contracting occurs at higher-tier aggregate codes that bundle commodity ingredients into institutional food supply contracts.
