UNSPSC 50482706: Limelight cauliflower purees

The variety of cauliflower known as limelight cauliflowers which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50482706 Limelight cauliflower purees is a Commodity code that state and local governments buy as a prepared vegetable product for institutional food service, though recent state and local solicitations show minimal direct procurement under this specific code. Instead, the available market activity reflects broader food-service buying patterns where cauliflower products appear as line items within large multi-category produce, vegetable, and prepared-food procurements serving school districts, correctional facilities, and state health agencies. The code sits beneath the Family-level produce and vegetable taxonomy and addresses a narrow product category that is typically sourced as part of comprehensive grocery or produce contracts rather than as a standalone commodity purchase.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting food products include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Virginia; Douglas County School System, Georgia; Rockwood R-VI School District, Missouri; Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Georgia; Burke County Public Schools, Georgia; Ben Hill County Schools, Georgia; Liberty County Board of Education, Georgia; Muscogee County School District, Georgia), state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), and correctional and health systems. Recent opportunities from February through June 2026 show school nutrition programs and state institutional food services issuing IFBs, RFPs, and RFQs for comprehensive food procurement covering hundreds of line items where vegetable products, including prepared cauliflower variants, are specified items rather than the primary focus. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Illinois, Virginia, and Missouri, with school districts representing the plurality of issuing bodies. Representative recent opportunities include the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-003 for Food Supply and Distribution Services (due February 18, 2026), which encompasses approximately 32,000 meals daily across 32 schools with an estimated annual expenditure of $9,000,000; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, with historical contract value of $1.5 million for the prior period); and the Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 procurement (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) covering grocery delivery to 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus seven distribution kitchens. No recent opportunities specifically and exclusively target limelight cauliflower purees; the code appears dormant as a standalone procurement vehicle in state and local markets.
