UNSPSC 50483221: Earlivee corn purees

The variety of corn known as earlivee corn which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50483221 Earlivee corn purees, a Commodity code, reflects state and local government purchasing of processed food products for institutional food service operations — particularly school districts, correctional facilities, and health and human services agencies. Recent solicitations show that while this specific commodity code appears sparingly in current postings, the broader category of food procurement encompasses canned and processed vegetables alongside fresh produce, proteins, and prepared foods as part of comprehensive weekly or quarterly food supply contracts. State and local buyers treat processed vegetable products as line items within larger food service RFPs and IFBs that consolidate multiple commodity purchases to simplify procurement administration and vendor management.

The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (including Fairfax County Public Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, and Liberty County Board of Education) along with specialized state-operated facilities such as the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (for state hospitals and supported living centers), the Oregon Department of Corrections, and the Illinois Veterans Home. Recent activity clusters in Georgia (multiple school districts), Texas (HHSC and state facilities), Oregon (DOC), Illinois (Veterans Home), Missouri (school districts), and Virginia (Fairfax County), with school nutrition programs representing the dominant buyer type. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (IFB, response due July 13, 2026), which enumerated roughly 210 line items of supplemental foods and consumables with a historical contract value of $1.5 million for the prior period; and the Rockwood R-VI School District Child Nutrition Services solicitations (CHILDNUTRITIONSERVICESGROCERYITEMS20262027, IFB, responses due April 29, 2026) covering over 900 grocery line items for the 2026-27 school year. Processed vegetables and purees appear as subordinate items within these broad food-supply procurements rather than as standalone specifications, indicating market demand exists primarily as part of consolidated institutional food service contracts rather than as narrow commodity buys.
