UNSPSC 50483102: Chinese flat-headed cabbage purees

The variety of chinese cabbage known as chinese flat-headed cabbage which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50483102 Chinese flat-headed cabbage purees is a Commodity-level code that does not reflect the actual procurement activity currently being solicited under it by state and local governments. Recent opportunities posted under this code encompass shelf-stable and prepared food products for institutional food service — including canned vegetables, proteins, dairy items, fresh and frozen produce, condiments, sauces, and consumable food-service supplies — rather than Chinese flat-headed cabbage purees specifically. The code appears to be a mismatch between the taxonomy label and the work actually being bought; none of the recent solicitations name cabbage purees as a requirement, and the scope is substantially broader than that single commodity.

State and local governments issuing under this code include state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission procuring for state supported living centers), county boards of commissioners and school districts (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), and state agencies (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State of Illinois). Recent opportunities span Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods (french fries, hashbrown patties, chicken wings, sauces, food service supplies) at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center with bids due October 23, 2026; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, soups, canned vegetables) with quotes due October 19, 2026; and the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (USDA Grade B or better, sliced, diced, stewed, halves, or whole) with bids due June 19, 2026. The code shows active procurement but limited specificity to the stated commodity; buyers pursuing this category should evaluate whether their product or service offering aligns with the broader institutional food-service scope rather than the narrow code name.
