UNSPSC 50482100: Broccoli purees

The type of vegetable known as broccoli which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50482100 Broccoli purees is a Class code covering shelf-stable and prepared food products that state and local governments procure for institutional feeding operations, though recent activity under this specific code is minimal. The state and local opportunities posted under it reflect broader food-service procurement by state health agencies, county social services, and school districts supplying cafeterias, canteens, dining facilities at state supported living centers, and senior services programs. Work typically involves supplying bulk quantities of canned vegetables, prepared foods, fresh and frozen proteins, dairy products, condiments, and food-service consumables—items that align nominally with the broccoli purees taxonomy but appear in practice as part of comprehensive food-service line-item bids that span dozens or hundreds of SKUs. Issuing bodies include Texas Health and Human Services Commission (repeat buyer for state supported living centers), county school nutrition programs (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia), county social services (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), state corrections departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Oregon Department of Corrections), and state health agencies.

The code sees recent activity concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (October 23, 2026 response deadline) for consumable foods and supplies at Lufkin State Supported Living Center—a 22 line-item procurement with annual quantities ranging 1 to 24 cases per item and seven-day delivery windows; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 (October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable products including canned vegetables, peanut butter, and sauces for senior services; and Burke County Public Schools' sealed bid (June 5, 2026 deadline) for nearly 400 line items across multiple food categories supporting five schools. A prior Texas HHSC solicitation (HHS0016792v2, due March 19, 2026) for supplemental food and consumables to state hospitals and supported living centers statewide encompassed 210 line items and carried a maximum three-year contract value of $4.5 million. The code shows little standalone procurement activity for broccoli purees specifically; the recent notices tag broader institutional food-service buys where vegetable products appear as line items within comprehensive procurements rather than as dedicated product families.
