UNSPSC 50483227: How sweet it is corn purees

The variety of corn known as how sweet it is corn which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50483227 How sweet it is corn purees is a Commodity code encompassing shelf-stable and prepared food products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service operations—specifically, state health and human services facilities, correctional institutions, school districts, and county senior services centers. The code's recent activity reflects a much broader sourcing pattern than the nominal code name suggests: state and local buyers are acquiring dozens of prepared and fresh food items (proteins, frozen vegetables, dairy, grains, condiments, canned goods, and food service supplies) for canteens, cafeterias, and on-campus food programs rather than corn purees specifically. Issuing bodies span state health and human services commissions, state correctional departments, county school nutrition programs, county senior services departments, and independent school districts. Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears as a repeat buyer, with at least three separate IFBs posted between May and October 2026 for supplemental food and consumables serving state supported living centers and state hospitals statewide. Georgia school districts and the Oregon Department of Corrections also show recent procurement activity under related food-service codes.

Recent opportunities cluster in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumable foods, due October 23, 2026), requesting 22 line items of prepared foods and food service supplies with delivery within seven days of order and pricing on an F.O.B. Destination basis; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 (food items for Department of Community Services, due October 19, 2026), requesting approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable products including peanut butter, canned proteins, and sauces with delivery within 72 hours; and Burke County Public Schools' school nutrition food bid (due June 5, 2026, bids opening June 8), encompassing nearly 400 line items across multiple food categories for five schools with firm pricing for the initial 30-day period and subsequent adjustments on a six-month basis. The Oregon Department of Corrections' June 2026 bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026) illustrates the volume and specificity typical of institutional food procurement—in this case, USDA Grade B or better with minimum 12 months shelf life remaining, delivered in eight full truck loads to a central distribution center. Buy American requirements appear in school district bids; Texas and Oregon impose local or state-resident bidder preferences on evaluation.
