UNSPSC 50482900: Chard purees

The type of vegetable known as chards which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50482900 Chard purees is a Class code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The source records show no posted opportunities for chard purees or functionally equivalent vegetable purees. Instead, recent solicitations under or near this code area address broad consumable food procurement — fresh and frozen produce, canned vegetables, proteins, dairy, condiments, and food service supplies — for institutional dining operations including state-supported living centers, corrections facilities, school nutrition programs, and county senior services. The buying patterns reflect volume food service for residential and on-site consumption rather than specialty vegetable products. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under related food commodity codes include Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia school districts (Gwinnett County, Burke County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools), the State of Illinois, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and county social services departments. These jurisdictions conduct regular, recurring food procurements on annual or multi-year cycles.

Recent opportunities cluster in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (bids due October 23, 2026), covering prepared foods and food service supplies with annual quantities of 1 to 24 cases per item; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins, sauces, and vegetables, due October 19, 2026; and Ben Hill County Schools' sealed bid IFB #26271 for comprehensive school nutrition food products across multiple categories with bids due June 15, 2026. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued IFB S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (bids due June 19, 2026), demonstrating that single-commodity food procurements do occur at state level. The code shows no recent activity specifically for chard purees as a line item or primary procurement object.
