UNSPSC 50483110: Rosette bok choy purees

The variety of chinese cabbage known as rosette bok choy which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50483110 Rosette bok choy purees (Commodity) represents a narrow food-supply category that state and local governments source as part of broad, ongoing institutional food procurement programs serving state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and senior services. The recent opportunities in this code's scope, however, show little direct solicitation for rosette bok choy purees specifically; instead, state and local buyers are purchasing large volumes of shelf-stable, prepared, and frozen food items — canned vegetables, proteins, dairy, grains, condiments, and consumable food service supplies — through competitive bids and informal written quotes. The issuing bodies are predominantly state health and human services departments (particularly in Texas), state departments of corrections, county boards of commissioners, school districts, and their food-service authorities across multiple states. These are typically long-term contracts (fiscal-year or academic-year terms with optional renewals) serving decentralized facility networks with centralized purchasing and distribution, often with incumbent contractors and established vendor relationships.

Activity in recent months shows solicitations from Texas Health and Human Services Commission (multiple IFBs for state-supported living centers and state hospitals with historical values in the $1.5 million to $4.5 million range over multi-year terms), Oregon Department of Corrections (canned goods procurement for statewide distribution), Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools seeking comprehensive food-supply bids), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (informal written quote for shelf-stable items), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice via the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division (large IFB for cafeteria products across five geographic areas). Representative opportunities include Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0018082 (consumables for Lufkin State Supported Living Center, bids due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County IWQ 140229 (approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable foods, quotes due October 19, 2026 at 3 p.m.), and Oregon Department of Corrections bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (bids due June 19, 2026, with 5 percent preference for Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-resident bidders). The geographic concentration is strongest in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with Texas state health and corrections agencies representing the most frequent and largest-volume buyers.
