UNSPSC 50482803: Chinese celery purees

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

UNSPSC 50482803 Chinese celery purees, a Commodity code, does not match state and local procurement activity. The recent-opportunities block shows no solicitation for Chinese celery purees or any celery-based product. The opportunities tagged under this code actually procure broad consumable-food categories for state facilities, school nutrition programs, and correctional institutions — including prepared foods (proteins, frozen entrees, vegetables, dairy, grains, condiments), fresh produce, canned goods, and food service supplies (containers, napkins, serving trays, gloves, foil). The scope spans everything from individual line items in small county orders to comprehensive multi-hundred-item food-service packages for large state systems. Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia school districts, Oregon Department of Corrections, and Georgia county governments are among the recent issuing bodies, each procuring under different notice types (IFB, IWQ) and at varying scales.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has issued multiple IFBs for state supported living centers and hospitals since May 2026, including HHS0017449 (El Paso facility, July 2026) and HHS0018082 (Lufkin facility, October 2026); Texas Department of Criminal Justice sourced approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products via IFB 304T-26-300CF, with response due May 4, 2026. Georgia school districts—Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools—bid food for school nutrition programs in May and June 2026. Oregon Department of Corrections procured 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes via IFB S2910000017145 in June 2026. Gwinnett County, Georgia requested approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable foods via IWQ 140229 in October 2026. The code shows no recent activity specifically for celery purees; if this code assignment reflects a data-entry error in state or local procurement systems, vendors should verify the correct UNSPSC before pursuing opportunities under this designation.
