UNSPSC 50482803: Chinese celery purees

The variety of celery known as chinese celery which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50482803 Chinese celery purees is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations specifically for Chinese celery purees or any celery purée products. The opportunities logged under this code span broad food service categories—weekly food orders for veterans homes, state institution food supplies, school nutrition programs, fresh produce, canned tomatoes, and general grocery items—none of which identify celery purees as a line item or named deliverable. The code appears to reflect a mismatch between the taxonomy classification and actual buying patterns in state and local procurement.

State and local issuing bodies with recent activity in this broader food-service space include school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state departments (Illinois Veterans Home, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Georgia), and regional purchasing cooperatives such as the GEC Buying Cooperative. Geographic concentration is strongest in Georgia and Texas, with additional activity in Oregon, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumable procurement (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026, covering state hospitals and supported living centers statewide with estimated prior-period value of $1.5 million), the Oregon Department of Corrections' canned tomato solicitation (ITB S2910000016405, due April 6, 2026, for approximately 7,616 cases), and multiple school district grocery and produce bids across Georgia issued via RFQ or IFB between January and June 2026. No recent opportunity documentation identifies Chinese celery purees or celery-based products as procurement targets, suggesting this code may see little relevant activity in current state and local markets.
