UNSPSC 50482405: Purple cabbage purees

Type of vegetables known as purple cabbage which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50482405 Purple cabbage purees is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it show negligible activity related to purple cabbage purees specifically. Of the ten recent opportunities in the dataset, nine involve broad-scope food procurement for state institutions, school districts, and correctional facilities—primarily fresh, frozen, canned, and prepared foods in bulk quantities—and one concerns potatoes with insufficient detail for analysis. None of the documented solicitations names purple cabbage purees as a line item or identifies it as part of the scope. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has issued multiple IFBs for consumable foods and food service supplies at state supported living centers (HHS0018082 posted October 16, 2026, due October 23, 2026; HHS0017449 posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026; and HHS0016792V2 posted May 19, 2026, due March 19, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections has solicited canned tomatoes (S2910000017145 posted June 5, 2026, due June 19, 2026), and multiple Georgia and Texas school districts and counties have requested comprehensive food bids; however, these opportunities reflect commodity-level purchasing of shelf-stable proteins, vegetables, grains, dairy, and condiments rather than ingredient-specific or processed vegetable purees.

The code shows little actionable recent activity for purple cabbage purees as a distinct procurement line. Geographic concentration appears across Texas (HHS and TDCJ solicitations), Georgia (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, and State of Georgia), and Oregon (ODOC and Department of Corrections), but the opportunities reflect institutional food service contracting for complete meal components and supplies rather than specialty vegetable inputs or processed purees. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for near-term pursuit; opportunities in food service for state institutions, schools, and correctional facilities are routing through broader food-category codes and are being awarded on price and delivery capability for mixed-product line items rather than on single-ingredient or puree specifications.
