UNSPSC 50483249: Pristine corn purees

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

UNSPSC 50483249 Pristine corn purees is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of state and local food procurement activity the code has captured in recent solicitations. The recent opportunities tagged to this code show state and local governments buying comprehensive food service supplies — including canned vegetables, proteins, dairy, frozen entrees, bakery items, grains, condiments, and food service consumables — for institutional cafeterias, kitchens, and food service operations across state facilities, schools, county nutrition programs, and correctional institutions. The mismatch between the narrow code name and the broad scope of recent solicitations suggests either misclassification in source systems or that state procurement offices apply this code to institutional food procurement more broadly than its Commodity-level title implies. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state health and human services commissions (Texas HHS, Georgia State), state correctional departments (Texas TDCJ, Oregon DOC), school nutrition programs (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia), county human services (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), and state procurement offices acting on behalf of multiple agencies. Texas state agencies appear as repeat buyers across multiple 2026 solicitations.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing IFB HHS0018082 on October 16, 2026 (response due October 23, 2026) for consumable foods and food service supplies to the Lufkin State Supported Living Center; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issuing IWQ 140229 on October 13, 2026 (response due October 19, 2026) for shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, and vegetables; the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing an IFB on June 5, 2026 (response due June 19, 2026) for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes at $13.75 per case (prior award); Texas HHSC issuing IFB HHS0017449 on June 11, 2026 with a historical monetary value of $1.5 million for the prior period for food and consumable products serving state supported living centers and hospitals; and Ben Hill County Schools issuing IFB #26271 on May 19, 2026 (bids due June 15, 2026) for a comprehensive food procurement including fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and condiments for four school locations. Contract values where disclosed range from $1.5 million (prior-period historical value for one Texas HHSC contract) to $4.5 million over three years (Texas HHSC supplemental food procurement). Delivery requirements typically mandate F.O.B.
