UNSPSC 50483001: Broad leaved batavian chicory purees

The variety of chicory known as broad leaved batavian chicory which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50483001 Broad leaved batavian chicory purees is a Commodity code with minimal recent activity specifically aligned to this specialty produce item; state and local governments soliciting under nearby food procurement codes are buying mainstream grocery staples, proteins, dairy, produce, and prepared foods rather than chicory purees. The recent opportunities block shows no procurements explicitly requesting chicory purees or matching the code's narrow scope.

School districts, state health and human services agencies, and departments of corrections dominate the active food procurement market across the source sample, with issuing bodies concentrated in Georgia (Savannah-Chatham, Burke County, Muscogee County, Liberty County, and Douglas County school districts), Texas (HHSC, TDCJ), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District), Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools), and Illinois (Veterans Homes). Recent opportunities solicited under food codes span RFP, RFQ, IFB, and ITB formats with response dates ranging from February through July 2026. Representative procurements include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, estimated historical value of $1.5 million), the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026, prior purchase at $13.75 per case), the Texas TDCJ IFB 304T26300CF for cafeteria food products across five geographic areas (approximately 382 line items, extended due date May 4, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 covering 45 schools plus distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026). Pricing structures typically mandate firm, fixed unit rates inclusive of delivery and all ancillary costs, with price adjustments permitted at renewal periods or indexed to USDA or Consumer Price Index data. Buy American Act compliance and USDA grade standards appear consistently across school district and state agency solicitations. The code itself shows no recent corresponding activity; business development professionals pursuing state and local food procurement should focus on adjacent family-level codes covering general groceries, produce, dairy, and proteins rather than this highly specialized commodity line.
