UNSPSC 50482404: White cabbage purees

The type of vegetable known as white cabbage which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50482404 White cabbage purees is a Commodity code that names a single prepared vegetable product, but recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not solicit white cabbage purees or any pureed vegetables. Instead, the procurement activity shows food service operators and school nutrition programs bidding weekly and annual food supply contracts that span broad food categories—proteins, produce, dairy, grains, prepared entrees, and consumables—with white cabbage purees representing either a misclassification or an incidental line item within those larger scopes. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and state institutional facilities (corrections departments, health and human services agencies, veterans homes) seeking to stock cafeteria and institutional meal programs. The mix includes independent school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Douglas County School System), state corrections and health agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home), and county school nutrition programs across the Southeast and beyond.

Recent opportunities span Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, Virginia, and Missouri, with particularly dense activity among Georgia school districts and Texas institutional buyers. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for comprehensive food products across four schools (due June 15, 2026), Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract for supply to 45 schools plus distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026), and the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 cooperating districts with estimated annual value of approximately $5.5 million (due March 4, 2026). These solicitations typically run on annual or multi-year terms, require firm fixed pricing with limited midterm adjustments tied to cost indices, demand broad product compliance with USDA and FDA standards and Buy American provisions, and emphasize delivery reliability and food safety certification. The code shows active and recurring state and local procurement across institutional food service but limited evidence of demand specifically for cabbage purees as a distinct commodity line.
