UNSPSC 50482013: Detroit 2 little ball beet purees

The variety of beets known as detroit 2 little ball beets which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50482013 Detroit 2 little ball beet purees is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure food products for institutional feeding programs — primarily canned, frozen, and prepared produce items for schools, correctional facilities, and health and human services agencies. The recent opportunities under this code show substantial activity in school nutrition procurement, with districts and state agencies issuing IFBs and RFPs for multi-category food supply contracts spanning fresh produce, canned goods, proteins, dairy, and prepared entrees. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and health and human services, county and municipal school districts, and independent school systems across Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia. School districts dominate the recent activity — Ben Hill County Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Muscogee County School District, and Fairfax County Public Schools have each posted multi-category food procurement RFPs and IFBs in the past four months — alongside state-level solicitations from the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, and Illinois Veterans Home, and county-level activity from Douglas County Schools in Georgia.

Recent representative opportunities span the full range of institutional food service: the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products to supply the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center with a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million; the Oregon Department of Corrections posted ITB S2910000017145 (due June 19, 2026) for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes with an estimated eight-truckload requirement; and Fairfax County Public Schools issued IFB 2000004323 (due April 27, 2026) for Master Grocery K-12 covering 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus seven distribution kitchens, requiring minimum three years of business and food delivery experience. The Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri solicited two separate grocery procurements (both due April 29, 2026) — one for Net Off Invoice products and one for grocery items — encompassing over 900 line items with estimated quantities ranging from minimal to 730 cases annually per item. Pricing structures vary: some contracts require firm, fixed pricing for the full term with midterm adjustments permitted only for manufacturer price increases of 5 percent or greater; others use cost-plus-fee models pegged to USDA market indices or Urner Barry reporting for produce and eggs. Most contracts span July 1 through June 30 annual fiscal years for schools and require weekly delivery to multiple school sites between 7:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. Geographic concentration is strongest in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Oregon, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia; the Douglas County School System cooperative procurement through the GEC Buying Cooperative spans 30 districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of approximately $5.5 million combined for two geographic areas.
