UNSPSC 50482308: Tokyo bunching onion purees

The variety of bunching onions known as tokyo bunching onions which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50482308 Tokyo bunching onion purees, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code instead reflect broad institutional food service provisioning — weekly meal supply for state veterans' facilities, school nutrition programs serving thousands of students, state corrections departments, and health and human services agencies operating state-supported living centers and hospitals. Work being solicited includes fresh produce, proteins, dairy, frozen and canned goods, condiments, and consumable supplies across multiple food categories. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home), and regional cooperative purchasing vehicles (GEC Buying Cooperative). School districts appear as repeat buyers across multiple recent solicitations.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, where school districts dominate the recent opportunity list, with secondary clusters in Texas (state health agencies), Oregon (corrections), Missouri (school districts), Virginia (school districts), and Illinois (state veterans facility). Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (posted June 5, 2026, due June 19, 2026), specifying USDA Grade B or better with an eight-truckload requirement; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026, with prior-period value of $1.5 million); Burke County Public Schools' IFB for comprehensive grocery procurement across five schools (posted May 11, 2026, due June 5, 2026); and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract (posted April 6, 2026, due April 27, 2026) requiring delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens. Code 50482308 appears to be a tagging mismatch — the recent opportunities under this UNSPSC reflect general institutional food service provisioning rather than a specific fresh vegetable product line, suggesting limited relevance to firms specializing in Tokyo bunching onion purees as a discrete commodity.
